Significant market movements are fueling Trust Digital's growth and product development strategy. According to Gartner, the 19 million smartphones and PDAs scheduled to be shipped in 2007 in North America is more than double the number shipped in 2006. Today, the application most used on these devices is email and Microsoft has mobilized its global population of over 300 million mailboxes through Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync -- enabling these email boxes to be accessed anywhere and on any device. 8.3 million of the smartphones shipped this year will be packaged with the Microsoft OS.* Trust Digital's enterprise business is growing in the wake of this significant market shift and need by businesses to secure smartphones prior to permitting them network access.
