还可以,是原来Macromedia的头头,那里干得不错;后来在Microsoft,带头搞了Office 2000,也行。
肯定要比Olli-Pekka要强。
但iOS,Android势头太猛,Nokia半年内不出个让人惊讶的产品,以后只能跟Motorola一样当个众多之一的硬件商了。

JPMorgan Said to Test IPhone, BlackBerry Alternatives (Update1)

Sept. 10 (Bloomberg) -- JPMorgan Chase & Co. may soon let employees use iPhones for corporate e-mail, making it an alternative to Research in Motion Ltd.’s BlackBerry at the bank for the first time, two people familiar with the situation said.
JPMorgan is testing the Apple Inc. device and smartphones based on Google Inc.’s Android software, said the people, who didn’t want to be named because the plans haven’t been made public. The bank is the second-largest in the U.S. by assets and has about 220,000 employees worldwide.
UBS AG, Switzerland’s biggest bank, said it is also considering allowing its staff to use iPhones for company messaging as more of them opt for the Apple product. UBS has more than 63,000 employees.
Apple and Google are making inroads in RIM’s traditional stronghold with corporate customers, after their devices first caught on with consumers. Standard Chartered Bank Plc said in May it’s switching from the BlackBerry to the iPhone for employees and expects to have 15,000 distributed by year-end.
“This phenomenon is very new and we expect it to put increased pressure on RIM’s performance,” said Pierre Ferragu, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein Ltd. “BlackBerry isn’t the only alternative to offer employees mobile e-mail.”
RIM fell 99 cents, or 2.2 percent, to $44.03 at 10:31 a.m. New York time in Nasdaq Stock Market trading. The stock had lost a third of its value this year before today as Apple climbed by a quarter.
Security Tests
JPMorgan is testing for security in batches of a few hundred devices with a decision expected later this year, one of the people familiar with the matter said. JPMorgan would not buy iPhones or Android phones for employees, as it now does with BlackBerrys. Rather, the bank would allow employees to use the devices to send and receive corporate e-mail if they make the purchase themselves, the other person said.
Jennifer Zuccarelli, a spokeswoman for JPMorgan, and Natalie Harrison, an Apple spokeswoman, declined to comment. Marisa Conway, a spokeswoman for RIM, also declined to comment.
UBS doesn’t plan to replace the BlackBerrys it issues with iPhones anytime soon, spokesman Jean-Raphael Fontannaz said by telephone from Zurich. Rather, UBS is testing the possibility of allowing employees to use an iPhone or other smartphone to connect to UBS’s e-mail system without restricting the private use of the device, he said.
“There are certainly quite a few employees that have private iPhones, and as a bank we have to ask ourselves if that could be an option for us,” he said.
More iPhone Support
RIM’s share of the global smartphone market slid to 18.2 percent in the second quarter from 19 percent a year earlier as customers opted for rivals’ phones with larger screens and more applications, according to researcher IDC. Apple’s share rose to 14.2 percent from 13 percent, while Android surged to 17.2 percent from 1.8 percent.
Apple said in July that more than 80 percent of the Fortune 100 companies are deploying or testing the iPhone. The Cupertino, California-based company has taken steps to improve the iPhone’s security, such as strengthening encryption tools, adding the ability to set longer passcodes and integrating with servers that could wipe out or lock an iPhone if it’s lost.
More companies are set to follow suit, according to an August survey done by Sanford Bernstein.
Of 200 companies polled in the U.S. and U.K., 74 percent now let their employees use devices other than BlackBerrys, the research showed. For the U.S. alone, the figure was 83 percent.
Loyalty Fading
Cost savings and employee preference were the two biggest factors cited by companies for the shift in the Sanford Bernstein survey. Employees would rather own an iPhone and are increasingly willing to buy the device themselves, which helps cuts costs as companies look to rein in spending, said Sanford Bernstein’s Ferragu.
Other research suggests BlackBerry loyalty may be fading among the bankers, lawyers and government workers who drove RIM’s initial success. About 42 percent of BlackBerry users say they want to stick with the brand when they buy a new phone, according to an August survey by Nielsen Co. The rate is 89 percent for iPhone owners and 71 percent for Android devices.
