However, concerns have already been voiced over a number of issues — including battery life.Enderle said that businesses should wait until the autumn for the release of third-party hardware and better quality control in the App Store before adopting the new handsets. “It would be better for employees and their companies if purchases of the new 3G iPhone were delayed until at least September when critical parts like battery life are fixed and businesses can be assured that iPhone-using employees can communicate reliably.“In short, wait until the 3G iPhone exits Beta and meets your company’s needs before embracing it,” he added.PC Advisor is an InfoWorld affiliate.
