The iPhone and your IT Department.
June/19/2007 07:12 PM Filed in: Apple | Technology
I just finished reading and article from The
Wallstreet Journal titled "Companies Hang Up on
Apple's iPhone".
It focuses on an IT directors point of view on the iPhone. The problem with this article is the title. Companies are not Hanging Up on Apple's iPhone, lazy IT departments are.
The article is misleading because they're not asking the people who run the companies.
When any company President says he wants an iPhone to work with the company email, the IT department will have no choice but to figure out how to make it work.
I've worked with small minded IT people like this, they think they can dictate the direction of change in the company. When in reality they don't have any power when an executive wants something.
Think about the fact that Steve Jobs (Apple), Eric Schmidt (Google) and Jerry Yang (Yahoo), the CEOs for some of the most important companies on the planet will be using their iPhones with their companies email.

I dropped my wife and kids off yesterday to go to a
camp for the week. So it's just me and Dixie this
week.
Dixie, if you remember was a surprise to me and apparently only me.
