"While many of the new features for the 3.0 software and the iPhone 3GS have been available on competing platforms for years, the feature list isn't as important as how well these are implemented, according to Jason Lackey, marketing manager with InnoPath.
'A lot of folks are concerned about feature lists, and they put checkmarks next to a long list of options but no one cares about how they're implemented or if the end user benefits from it,' said Lackey. 'Apple has shown they know how to bake in these features, and bake them in right.'
Lackey sees the improved capabilities of the 3.0 software and the decreased price of the iPhone 3G as a catalyst for wider adoption in the enterprise environment. One of the most appealing new features of the software for the mobile professional is the ability to use the iPhone as a wireless modem for computers or laptops."
