Last night I popped along to an MMMUG, mainly to be honest to hear Jason Langridge talk about Windows Mobile and managing it using System Center Mobile Device Manager. I have to say this product looks like a cool way to manage your fleet.
It sits in your enterprise along side Exchange (it’s not a replacement and works independently) and allows you to totally manage your WinMo estate. You’ll need the next version of WinMo to use this product. But it’s pretty advanced, and lets you run a mobile VPN which is totally cool for allowing access to your internal servers from your mobile devices. You could allow access to your SharePoints (use “/m” at the end of the URL for a mobile friendly site in MOSS2007) and equally cool stuff.
Got me thinking, might have a Geek Out and setup a Mobile VPN using the gear Paul at MoDaCO suggested before, it was called Hamachi!

If you want to try a really cool mobile vpn check out netnotion (www.netmotionwireless.com). we use it to connect 300 x WM5 devices to email and our sfa system. it speeds up the applications and the users dont even know it is there
