Shouldered aside by recent entrants into the smartphone and mobile e-mail market, HP sees a tougher focus on business users, enterprise markets and device management as keys to regaining its leadership.
Mobile device manufacturer High Tech Computing (HTC) unveiled its first branded smartphone for Australia -- the HTC Touch -- in Sydney yesterday.
Hewlett-Packard launched a range of new mobile business products in Sydney today, including laptops, an iPAQ and the company's first mobile thin client.
The traditional desktop PC is not yet doomed, but is going through a transformation, according to HP.
HP has reinvigorated its iPaq handheld range with the launch of five new devices, plus a host of new software programs, accessories and services designed to attract business users.
In 2005, Canadian wireless company Research in Motion (RIM) came from relative obscurity to steal a global lead in e-mail equipped mobile devices with its BlackBerry. Could 2008 be the year that BlackBerry falls off its perch?
Symbian is the mobile world's dominant operating system, but can it walk the walk in the business world or will it always be the poor cousin to Windows Mobile in the enterprise? David Braue finds out.

A feature-packed smartphone that's well-suited to business users, but it lacks the style and design-prowess of the BlackBerry.
The HP iPaq hw6900 is shaping up to be a powerful device, but we're always a little wary of products that aim to be a jack-of-all-trades. We hope it can perform in all areas -- GPS, phone, PDA, and multimedia -- and do them well.
The BlackBerry for non-corporate users who require extensive multimedia capabilities, in addition to push-e-mail. (It's also a phone, portable audio/video player, camera, organiser, navigator and note-taking device.)
With two batteries and a separate charger, the SGH-i780 could be a wise choice for the mobile professional, although it's a bit bulky and the screen is a touch small for some applications
