Consider the scenario where you can receive your corporate email using Windows Mobile and post an update to twitter using Android — same phone, at the same time. Sounds great, doesn’t it? VMware is currently working on optimizing the virtualization technology so the incoming/outgoing data from each OS is managed efficiently and securely and that the switch from one OS to another is seamless and intuitive. The targeted user of such a device is the business man who does not want to carry two devices. One device could be used for both business and pleasure, without concern that sensitive business information would be shared with your Facebook friends or a snapshot from your weekend shenanigans would be attached to your latest memo. With both a US and a UK carrier on board, VMware is looking to begin testing its dual OS phones in an enterprise environment in 2011 with mass production expected in 2012. Take that, RIM.Read

While WES might have turned out to be a wash as far as new handsets are concerned, there’s still plenty of awesome new stuff down here in sunny Orlando, FL. New to the scene is LogMeIn Ignition, an app for the Storm which allows Windows and Mac users to access and control their computers on the go. Just like its iPhone app cousin, LogMeIn Ignition has the ability to pan and zoom, a full-QWERTY keyboard and the ability to store login details for multiple computers along with necessary passwords with 256-bit SSL encryption. LogMeIn’s Ignition looks to be a definite winner for those who are looking to access their computers while on the move. Look for it to make its retail debut sometime in the near future, but for now you can sign up to learn more and be notified as soon as you can join the beta program by hitting the read link.
