By John Britton, Director, Mobility Platform Evangelist for Good Technology — It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see that the Bring-your-own (BYO) trend is not only a reality in today’s enterprises, but a rising statistic!

... Read More...By John Todd, Synaptics — In case you haven’t noticed, the working world is getting a lot more “touchy-feely.” Of course, by that we mean through the major influx of touchscreens into our everyday working environments.For example, recent studies have shown that by 2015 mobile workers will account for more than one-third of the global workforce, accounting for 1.3 billion mobile workers. In addition to that, the typical mobile worker now carries an average of 3.5 devices with them on any given day — this could be a smartphone, tablet and an Ultrabook™ device for example.
