Nokia e61i, Blackberry 8820, Apple iPhone, Windows Smartphone or something else?
In our business email has reached critical mass and the time has come to take it mobile. It’s a revolution in our little world almost as big as the introduction of the mobile phone itself. We already implemented Exchange Server 2007 but now I need to decide which direction to go for our field based personnel. Currently they have a mix of old but reliable Nokia based phones that pretty much just make and receive calls and send and receive SMS - but email on the road is rapidly becoming a requirement.
Looking at what’s available and even more importantly what I can get my hands on for testing I have this shortlist.
Why we love our digital photo frame

Dusty cupboards, spider filled lofts, coffee stained photo albums, unopened boxes from yester-years house move, and buried under the coffee table. That’s where you’ll probably find most photographs. I know ours used to be. Not anymore though. Not since
Lessons in making a multi-lingual website

I confess - I only speak one language (excluding programming languages of course!). Some people might even tell you I have difficulty with this one. However, I was still asked to work on the technical angle of converting a website to a multi-lingual website - to include French and German language variations. The actual “language” side would be handled by someone else - phew I thought, oh and apparently the project would be a breeze. Now, the older I get the more worried I look when people tell me things are going to be a breeze because more often than not they aren’t. This was to become no exception.
Finding a translator was simple enough, our local chamber of commerce were very helpful in this respect. I was a little concerned when there was no project meeting, discussion or even email communication to lay out the requirement but as the “language” side was being handled by someone else I was not too concerned. As long as I received the text then the technical implementation should be quite straightforward.
