Letter from the Editor: Mobile Technologies for Real-World Business Problems
The other day, I had a problem: how do I write an introduction for a newsletter focusing on mobility? Like most people, I find that every minute of every day is packed. So, of course, I needed to write this introduction on the go, without having to boot my computer, wait for an Internet connection or for Word to start up. I wanted to use my mobile device and keep it short and crisp.

It's true that mobile devices are excellent for entertainment, games, fun new apps and news. But how about the business data and information needed for decision-making? That's precisely what we address in this issue of the newsletter.

Check out the mobile technologies area on SCN, and find out about mobile apps from SAP. The more you look, the more you'll find the right mobility application for your specific business processes!

Sincerely,

Karin Schattka
Technology Innovation Consultant at SAP

In another session, you'll learn how to develop services for the SAP Business Suite using SAP NetWeaver Gateway, which can be leveraged for mobile consumption using the Sybase Unwired Platform (SUP).

  6. Mobility Technology Connects Ghana to New Opportunities  
 
    This Forbes article takes a look at how SAP and the microfinance organization, PlaNet Finance, have made a positive difference in Ghana by funding shea nut farmers and providing business training. Most promising for their future economic sustainability, however, is their use of mobile technology, which provides an important record of each transaction and allows buyers to trace the nuts back to the source.
