There are a multitude of articles, white papers, and analyst reports out there that all have the same conclusion; the iPhone has many shortcomings that make it an unsuitable device to set loose in any responsible organization. You can’t really argue with these assertions that the iPhone, out of the box, is not quite ready yet for prime time in the enterprise. The key word in that statement is "out of the box."

Employees on the move have a number of IT requirements that are essential to their optimal productivity and effectiveness. These include wireless access to:

• Email
• The internet
• Corporate intranets
• Enterprise applications (ERP, CRM, SFA, etc.)
• Customer contact information and history
• Personal and corporate calendars

Employees need to access these IT requirements while keeping the information secure. In order for these features to be secure, there needs to be an 'enterprise only' zone on the iPhone so that IT can address the specific security and management functionality required to bring the iPhone into compliance with the organization's rigorous policies.
