Report in a Nutshell
The evolution of the cell phone, driven by the wireless data industry trying to make individuals more productive wherever they are, has led to the current state of the art device, referred to as the Smartphone. Smart phones are nothing more than handheld computers that support email, personal organizers, voice & data communications services and other applications.
All smart phones come loaded with standard applications defined by
the manufacturer. However, in 2009 the network operators, looking for
revenue opportunities, have encouraged the development of other
applications that can be used on the cell phones they support. Using
these applications will use the network services more and generate more
revenue. The network operators established business relationships and
development platforms to encourage the growth of these applications.
Since that time, with popular platforms like Apple's iPhone or Android
handsets, mobile application development has exploded.
While smart phones are the primary mobile device, over the last two
years, we have seen the emergence of tablet computers and other such
mobile devices which support mobile applications.

following handset manufacturers:
- Research in Motion ("RIM")
