Mcommerce Development Will be Presented by Faraz Syed, CEO & Co-founder of Deviceanywhere at the 2008 Financial Services Technology Forum
August 28, 2008 – Toronto, Canada – DeviceAnywhere’s CEO & Co-founder, Faraz Syed will describe user-friendly mCommerce applications that guide mobile application developers to create effective applications at the 2008 Financial Services Technology Forum.ÂÂ

Living up to expectations: developing user-friendly mCommerce applications
ÂÂ
Consumers expect the same experience on handsets as on computers. MCommerce is particularly challenged by creating mobile applications that end-users will embrace. Applications used for online banking are not easily transferable to mobile devices. Just as consumers were initially skeptical of Internet banking, they will be hesitant to make financial transactions on handsets. Consumers must know that applications are secure and reliable.
ÂÂ
Developers can ease these fears by ensuring that only the most user-friendly and secure applications make it to market. Fixing problems can be accomplished by developing and frequent testing across myriad devices – a feat most easily and cost-effectively accomplished through DeviceAnywhere. DeviceAnywhere provides developers remote access to real devices over live networks – on which they can develop, test, and deploy applications. Unlike emulators, DeviceAnywhere employs real devices, so devices behave exactly as if developers were holding them in their hands. DeviceAnywhere empowers mCommerce developers with tools to create effective applications – thereby satisfying end-users.

Online Business Technology Study Options
Businesses conduct almost all of their work related duties online. This growing trend is making it necessary for employers to hire people to focus on the technical needs of their business. These needs range in difficulty but have the same goal, which is to establish a strong technology environment. Online schools offer many options for study in the area of business technology.
The field of business technology is wide spread and can have students studying how to repair computers and managing information systems for a business. With the field being so diverse students can find a degree program that is right for them. The first major step students need to take in deciding on an online business technology school to attend is what area of the field they want to work in. Working to repair computers takes less education than working to manage information systems. Doing the latter falls under business technology but students will work through a different degree program like information technology. Business technology schools teach students how to perform maintenance, set-up, configure, diagnose, and repair computer problems. Another prominent benefit is that students with an undergraduate degree in business technology can easily enter a graduate degree in a more specialized area at a later time if desired.
