Android phones will make significant headway in the smartphone market and 4G service providers will zero in on apps in 2010. Those are a couple of the hot enterprise mobility trends identified by a trio of analysts.
Their new report is called "Predictions 2010: Enterprise Mobility Accelerates Again," and here's a summary of their ideas:
1. The top tier mobile operators will be ramping up 4G network investments, and looking to business and vertical applications as high value offerings for users who appreciate much faster download speeds and reduced latencies.
2. Machine-to-machine (M2M) applications and services will be available from most top tier mobile carriers. And they're expecting a big uptick in business, fueled by the spread of IP-based wired and wireless networks into whole new areas. One big one: so-called green IT and the overall trend toward "smart grids" to manage and reduce electric demand. Consumer M2M applications will cover remote monitoring of homes, appliances, automobiles; enterprise M2M will take off in focused vertical markets like healthcare, energy, transportation.
