Handhelds Call for New Enterprise Thinking

Peter Coffee's eweek column Handhelds Call for New Enterprise Thinking pointed out a basic yet important design paradigm of applications and services for handheld devices. A handheld could augment user's accessibility of some network services as the user moves, compared with desktop computers. A simple example is to use software on handhelds to find the nearest printer or Internet access.

Handhelds should have functions that provided by Apple iPod, and user should be able to access online music store anytime, anywhere. With the convergence of cellular and PDA, this will happen some day.
