The portion of overall IT budgets allocated to wireless spending in 2008 was pegged to 12% overall, and that is unlikely to change dramatically in 2009. Organizations still face the challenge of managing decentralized workforces, increasing numbers of remote workers and reducing operational costs. International markets will offset the more challenging conditions of the US market while the midsize business market still appears to be robust in the face of less discretionary project spending among large enterprises. This report analyses the key trends that have thus far characterized 2008 and the trends that will shape the wireless enterprise market in 2009.
