  • Description: IDC reported that handheld sales actually declined about 17% in 2005. IDC did say that handheld vendors, including market share leaders Palm and HP, have been furiously innovating in an attempt to keep non-voice devices relevant, adding features such as GPS and Wi-Fi to the basic PIM. But voice is still the killer app for most enterprise and consumer pockets. In other news, General Motors announced last week that it is parceling out responsibility for several billion dollars of IT work during the next five years among multiple vendors. The deal is yet another indication that multisourcing, rather than single-source IT megadeals, is the wave of the future.
