Smartphones are critical to the fortunes of the entire mobile/wireless ecosystem; they drive data traffic, improve hardware margins, expand silicon design-wins, and pull software sales through app stores to increase post-load revenues. Broad adoption of smartphones, however, has been slowed by high retail prices and cost of data plans. Industry experts are calling 2010 "the year of the mass-market smartphone." According to Gartner, the smartphone market is expected to grow 46% in 2010, boosted by cheaper, mid-range devices based on Android and other open OSes. Based on current research, Asia is poised as the top market for growth in this sector.

SecureIT Mobile is the way to build and deploy secure communications for agency CIO's, corporate IT, government contractors, integrators, OEMs, and mobile network operators — using OKL4 mobile virtualization with COTS hardware and software.

This presentation will detail how virtualization enables OEMs to build mass-market smartphones with less expensive single-core chipsets and lower-cost components. It will examine the functional and financial impact of virtualization on handset BOM and explore key trade-offs between traditional multi-chip smartphone designs and a fully virtualized mass-market smartphone. You will also learn how to eliminate emerging security threats to mobile communications using SecureIT Mobile to tntegrate commercial off-the-shelf handsets (COTS), open OSes, readily-available applications and encryption technology, and mobile virtualization into a secure communications platform
