Oh, oh!  This is going to be long thread!  I have a huge list I actually
made somewhere...

Sorry if this question seems like flame bait, but exactly which features
does the iPhone need to have to be considered ready for the enterprise?

The iPhone is still not a business unit.  They are trying, and while the
OS is at 3.0, the business side is still in beta, IMO.  Apple has never
catered to businesses - no matter how much folks have tried to integrate
their products.  The iPhone is the first device where Apple has been
severely tasked by the customer to produce something that can work in
both consumer and business sectors.  They'll get it eventually, but 3.0
still does not provide everything.  In addition, AT&T has stated
publicly that there are certain features of the iPhone 3Gs and the 3.0
update that they either a) will still not support for a while, and b)
may cost extra in the future.

 

Watch your phone bill.

I see, so really your just touting the iPhone's lack of security
features? ;-)

Just blindly accepting a self-signed cert is really not a good security
practice, even if it does make life a little simpler.

That said, not using a trusted cert on OWA/Autodiscover truly is a
matter of getting what you pay for.

Self Signed Certs.  Nothing 'really amiss' here.  Just have to import
the CA Cert.

If setting up a Windows Phone (the new name for Windows Mobile from what
I hear) takes more than entering a URL, a user name and a password then
you've got something amiss in your systems. Should take around 45
seconds, depending on the length of those fields and the speed of your
thumbs.

That is ironic.  I setup my HTC in under a minute (actually timed it).
So those iPhones must be wicked fast.  ;-)

Only if you have the app for it.

I thought the iPhone can cure cancer.

Hello All.

The boss just purchased an iPhone 3g. I believe the cure for cancer will
be realized before I can get this "rock" to send and receive e-mail from
our
Exchange server. The folks at Apple were little or no help. They sent me
links to various docs, which I found useless.

Does anyone know the "trick" to getting an iPhone 3g to connect to an
Exchange server? (2003). The server resides on our network, on the
friendly
side of our SonicWall firewall.

I guess I'm spoiled with my Blackberry, which has a 2 minute setup
process.

Thanks a ton!
