How do we keep all our mobile devices charged?
We own and manage a lot of mobile devices. Like between 100 - 1000 depending which ones you count.
Most of them are Windows Mobile, which means they are fairly power hungry, and need regular charging, but with this many devices, how do you safely and securely avoid tripping over cables, and sitting on devices?
Plan 1: is our magical, homemade cupboard. It gets rave reviews by the visitors to our office. If you have ever had to look after multiple devices, you will know why!
Plan 2: A bloke called tony has made a mobile version in a toolbox! I just discovered it on his learninginhand blog.
Another great, lateral thinking plan!

I was puzzled by a flurry of messages on some of my favourite mobile learning forums and email groups triggreed by Epic, a UK-based multimedia company, who were predicting that PDAs were on there way out. For every set of figures saying sales are waning,...
