Lotus Notes is coming to the iPhone which is no big surprise considering
how popular it has become in the enterprise. Below is some of the
article and links to iNotes screenshots.
---
IBM has unveiled a sneak peek of its new Lotus iNotes, a web app client
for its Lotus Domino messaging server to bring email, calendar, and
contacts to iPhone. The move fulfills rumors of customized iPhone
support for Lotus Notes and demonstrates IBM's evolving interest in
Apple within the enterprise.
Planned for delivery later this year, Lotus iNotes is built upon IBM's
existing Lotus Domino Web Access infrastructure. The company's web site
invites users to "bring the enterprise to your Apple iPhone" and says
the software will deliver a "rich Apple iPhone user experience."
IBM betting on Apple
Support for the iPhone in Lotus Notes is only IBM's latest step in
investing in Apple's platforms as a competitive alternative to
Microsoft's Windows. An AP report from January cited IBM spokesman Mike
Azzi as noting that his company has "a lot in common" with Apple. "We're
going to cross-pollinate," he said.

IBM's betting Apple will have cut and paste before this puppy ever
happens.....(c;
Maybe CTRL-C and CTRL-P? No, that won't work, no control clicker on the
Etch-A-Sketch keyboard. Hmm....Maybe iNotes will be later than we
think....

No, Steve, he's dead serious. He thinks it's a business machine. Sad,
isn't it?

I take offence to 'Their software sucks, plain
and simple.'
You must be a PC person, and have no clue they are the largest software
company in the world.
Do you remember the census?
How about voting records.
How about the Moon??
As far as Lotus, well I am not impressed with that, but they did not write
it.

They used to think our Systems 34 was a business machine, too! We proved
them wrong on many occasions....(c;
Many years later, a local Catholic church gave me a complete System 34 with
OS and manufacturing softwares. I kept it for a couple of years but needed
the warehouse for other stuff so we pushed it up in my van, after stripping
some beautiful power supply parts out of it. We backed the van up to a
huge dumpster, put down the ramp from the truck to the lip of the dumpster
and unceremoniously dumped a couple of hundred grand of IBM minicomputer, 6
terminals, a chain printer and some terminal equipment....into the trash.
