IBM Comes With New Software For Mobiles

IBM announced new software and services for mobile devices that closely mimic desktop features formerly found only on the PC.   Designed for both business users and consumers, the new offerings can help individuals make better business decisions faster, while connecting friends, work colleagues and teams beyond what has been available in the PC era.   According to a recent report from IBM's Institute for Business Value, the number of mobile Internet users worldwide is projected to approach 1 billion, a 191 percent increase from 2006 and a compound annual growth rate of 24 percent. Also, 67 percent of all workers today use mobile and wireless computing.
To capture this market demand, IBM is combining its software, services and research expertise to develop new mobile products and services.

The new software includes products with business intelligence, collaboration, social networking and business performance capabilities. In addition, IBM is providing developers with new tools to make existing software applications run on mobile devices. IBM's software is built on open standards so it can be used with most mobile platforms including BlackBerry®, iPhone®, Windows Mobile®, and Symbian.
