Tune for our ears – mobile investments poised to skyrocket

Yes, we ARE passionate about mobile gadgets and the overall mobile industry. Furthermore, we love listening to the stories of organizations and individuals improving their life thanks to the new mobile lifestyle — after all, our very own Stefan now works from Finland, the place he always wanted to visit.

So, it shouldn’t be surprising to you how the following numbers from a just-published Nemertes Research benchmark “Building the Successful Virtual Workplace” sound sweet to our ears:

• Enterprises are poised to expand their wireless investments considerably over the next 12 to 18 months
• The average growth rate of organizations (both large and small) looking to increase the number of devices they use over the next 12 months is 421%
• 75% of benchmark participants say they’re interested, or somewhat interested, in multimode products — devices that handle both WiFi and various flavors of wireless-WAN services
• Organizations with revenues of more than $1B report spending a median of $5,000 per year per mobile-enabled user

See? We’re all be living in a mobile world pretty soon!
