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.
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.
Mobile device manufacturer High Tech Computing (HTC) unveiled its first branded smartphone for Australia -- the HTC Touch -- in Sydney yesterday.
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?
The actual administration of e-mail -- getting it into your company, filtering it, distributing it, providing mobile access to it, archiving it, backing it up, undeleting it -- can be an extremely time-consuming, bothersome process.
The handheld maker used to be the king of the hill. So how did it tumble into Microsoft's arms?
Technology is allowing workers to stay in contact no matter where they are. How do you choose the right combination of hardware, software, data transport, and voice transport, then secure the whole lot and make sure your organisation is set up to take advantage?
Intel is adding to its arsenal of processors for portable devices by developing an XScale-based processor, code-named Bulverde, for handheld computers.

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.)
HP's latest iPAQ, the 612c Business Navigator, is a solid offering with lots of features and good battery life. It's a bland-looking and giant handset, but good performance and crisp touchscreen somewhat make up for the poor keypad.
