Anyway... I'm sure there are others. My point was to show why I think the new origami product will never be big in the corporate world...
I agree with you but not because of the WiFi security issue...that's been basically dealt with in the industry via VPN etc.

No matter how cool those deployment tools look it all comes down to a question: Would you trust your corporate security and integrity to Microsoft ?

A) Of course no one uses wireless as the 'main way' to communicate. Wireless is not fast enough to support tasks like desktop imaging. Its also more problematic to trouble shoot connectivity issues.

B) "Would you trust your corporate security and integrity to Microsoft ?" What planet are you living on? Its a microsoft world friend.

My company uses nothing but ISA 2004 for security, and we are rock solid. Sales for ISA are very strong, because of its inherent flexibility and ease of administration. It makes publishing resources like a e-mail and web content securely easy, even if you are using the box as a bastion host.

Spouting Microsoft bashing generalitys is meaningless.

I guess I should point out that I agree with Oracle, in that the Origami will flop.

I so no 'killer app' for the device at all.

Tablet? We got those.
Media player? We got those.
Small gaming device? We got those.
Small laptops? We got those.
PDA? We got those.

Just what exactly is this thing supposed to do?
