Ann Bednarz did a good job with this article "Best Practices for Your Enterprise SOA" which I was interviewed for some time ago.
"The benefits of the service-oriented architecture are widely touted: reduced integration costs, greater asset reuse, and the ability for I.T. to respond more quickly to changing business and regulatory requirements. But what about the pitfalls?
A little background. The SOA Consortium is a new SOA advocacy group. As Richard Soley put it during the webinar, they are not a standards body, however, they could be considered a source of requirements for the standards organizations. I’m certainly a big fan of SOA advocacy and sharing information, if that wasn’t already apparent. Interestingly, they are a time-boxed organization, and have set an end date of 2010. That’s a very interesting approach, especially for a group focused on advocacy. It makes sense, however, as the time box represents a commitment. 12 practitioners have publicly stated their membership, along with the four founding sponsors, and two analyst firms.

WebSphere Process Server and WebSphere ESB v6.0.1.5 and v6.0.2.1 have recently been made generally available. Customers using the v6.0.1.x stream will be interested to note they can upgrade directly from v6.0.1.x to v6.0.2.1 if they wish rather than having to go to v6.0.2.0 and then to v6.0.2.1.
I finally was impress with my wireless connection during a recent open house... After years of buying the top PDA or wireless cards and spending hours setting them up only to realize that I am losing productivity not increasing I would just set them aside and move on to business as usually, that is until I purchased the t-mobile dash last week. This device is very useful not only for 24/7 Internet access and e-mail but the ability to use it as a modem for my notebook which allow most applications to work great (Just stay away from huge downloads) the device utilizes the edge network which offers accepted speeds.
I've been at VON in San Jose this week. This morning I moderated a panel session on dualmode WiFi/cellular handsets, and putting together the intro slides made me crystallise my thoughts on them a bit more clearly, as I seem to have contradictory optimistic/pessimistic thoughts about them.
For the last few months I've been collecting information about all things mobile. One of the things I learned was that Sierra Wireless is about to release this 1st quarter two AirCards that, for the first time in a long time, will support Macs. This means I will have access without having to locate wifi. Does anyone out there have some experience with being totally mobile...what it entails, drawbacks, stability?

As someone who has a reputation for watching every penny, I find using Vodafone Live! to be very frustrating because I have to pay a fee for every little scrap of information that I take from it. Everywhere I turn, it's 50 cents here and 50 cents there, and before I know it I've spent a considerable amount of money for a short period of browsing.
With this in mind, it amazes me that Vodafone's clever marketing people haven't yet come up with the idea of offering Vodafone Live! subscription packages. These subscription packages could offer access to a combination of general information services such as news, weather, traffic, webcams, and maps for a discounted package price. This would make the whole Vodafone Live! experience more user friendly, provide better value for customers, and potentially increase revenue by compelling users to take advantage of services which they would otherwise not have used if individual service fees were incurred.
