Awk-re: Fujitsu as a Wave OEM.

Well, Fujitsu, security (TPMs, FDE Drives)as a "differentiation point" that has been "designed for maximum interoperability with business environments."

This "maximum interoperability" across ALL PLATFORMS sure does point to WAVE as the only possible solution.

I find it especially interesting that Fujitsu is getting its marketing guidance from "Microsoft’s own iPad-compete guidance. This guidance also permeates the recent Dell Windows 7 Tablet PRs. (see my earlier post).

"In keeping with Microsoft’s own iPad-compete guidance, Fujitsu is highlighting the ability of the coming slates to be managed and secured by corporate IT departments as a differentiation point from the iPad and other consumer-focused slates. From Fujitsu press release:

“As enterprises struggle to keep consumer smartphones and tablets off their corporate networks to avoid security breaches, Fujitsu is taking an alternative approach with the introduction of a companion device designed for maximum interoperability with business environments. Seamless integration is provided thanks to use of the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system. Additional licensing and rollout costs are capped since the slate PC uses the same software already deployed in enterprise infrastructures.”
