CeBIT catches the iPhone business bug

The CeBIT technology fair, the largest in the world, kicked off in Hannover, Germany, yesterday with a flood of new product announcements. One of the first came from Avaya, which demonstrated its one-X Mobile software, an application that turns the iPhone into a “personal remote control”” for business purposes.
