Wednesday, November 14th, 2012 Karen Ambrose Hickey, Editor
Our Q4 2012 Mobile Workforce Report is out tomorrow, but you can get a peek at some of the results.
Damon Poeter in PCMag, in “Bring-Your-Own-Device Trend Gaining Steam,” tells how employer-provisioned smartphones have dropped sharply, from 58 percent to 33 percent in the last year.
More from the report and article:
“The iPhone held on to the top spot in terms of popularity among those surveyed, with 53 percent naming Apple’s handset as their first choice, up from 45 percent the year before. Phones running Google’s Android mobile operating system eclipsed RIM’s BlackBerry smartphones in popularity for the first time since iPass has been conducting its research.
Meanwhile, just 5 percent of those polled said they currently use one of Microsoft’s Windows Phone devices but iPass noted that 8 percent think they’ll be getting one by the end of 2013.
