Today at a Town Hall meeting held at its Cupertino headquarters, Apple unveiled its vision for the future of the iPhone and third-party application development. The first announcement was about the iPhone's new support for the enterprise, including a Microsoft Exchange client. Apple has licensed Active Sync from Microsoft and the iPhone will now support push Exchange email, as well as sync contacts and calendar information. The Exchange client will be built into the iPhone and will be customizable from the mail settings tab, allowing the user to turn on and off certain functions. It will also support enterprise features such as remote device wipe, 802.1x and WPA2 security, enterprise device configuration and Cisco VPN services. These new features won't be available until the 2.0 firmware is available in June.
