Here are some notes from my observations and discussions on Day 2:
- SAP Mobile Documents - this is an internally developed solution that acts like a secure Dropbox, but able to be central managed by IT. Very useful!
- SAP is discussing M2M and/or The Internet of Things in at least two different locations here. They have a demo in the Connected City, and a demo of a smart vending machine in their booth.
- Dropbox is also showing off an enterprise version. You can now switch between a personal Dropbox and your enterprise version (secured and managed by your IT).
- SAP has developed several very interesting mobile B2C apps with deep social engagement models built in. I love it. One for sports teams and the other involving fashions and clothing.
- Firefox showing off their new mobile phones.
- SAP announced an M2M partnership with Ericsson.
I attended the Mobile Premier Apps awards session last night. Several dozen start-ups were judged by different expert panels for viability and awards. There are many very clever developers out there. My favorite was BlindSquare. A location based solution with audio information for the blind.
