There is a big difference between an iphone accessing corporate emails as opposed to a mission critical application, written in some niche language with a niche database. Even if it isn't mission critical, I've seen many corporate IT departments reject applications simply because of the language and/or database used.

>How often have you heard IT declaring that iPhones can't have email only to be overruled by the CFO who likes his iPhone and doesn't want to carry 2 devices? My point is that IT behaviors that make sense when tech is static or slowly developing, make far less sense when displacing technologies come on the scene. Seems to me that we have entered a period of substantial displacement.
