Now that I see the iPhone will land in the UK (and I'm sure the rest
of Europe in a few hours....)...
The iphone can/will do email, web, phone, music, video (and who knows
what else soon)
What are everyones plans for consumer devices coming onto their
campus in terms of connectivity with your infrastructure, systems,
Acceptable Use Statements etc.
i.e. I have 650 MS pupils in a laptop program who don't have Admin
Rights on their laptops (see previous posts on this, not my
idea! :-) )...but some of our pupils have to have 3G Vodems installed
so they can have broadband at home - as they leave out of the
city..or close to a beach...where they can't get broadband. What
happens is...if the students choose...they can use their personal 3G
vodem while at campus and bypass our filtering....
Curious what people are thinking....how things are going to change
sooner than we think....
Regards,
Don
