iPhone to support Exchange ActiveSync
Apple have today announced that along with their SDK to allow developers to produce 3rd party apps for the iPhone they have also been working on support for Exchange server. How about that, I guess I was right.
Doesn't the list of things Phil Schiller produces for an Enterprise iPhone sound a lot like the laundry list of device management policy options in Exchange 2007? Never mind, I'm sure it's just a coincidence.
Let's be honest here, the iPhone has been a roaring success just like we all knew it would be, and with the announcement of "Enterprise" support and a "proper" SDK Apple have removed some of the roadblocks that stand in the way of the iPhone marching into more larger businesses.
I'm not trying to soften everyone up to confess that I've purchased one myself despite the many objections on the list I link to above remaining unanswered by the way, Sure, I've purchased a new phone of my own recently, but it isn't an iPhone.
