iPhone Business Apps: Developers Find New Niche

Since the introduction of the iPhone SDK last March, the observable number of business apps for the iPhone has increased at mind-staggering rates. This affords Interaction Designers a new solution-space in a multitude of existing domains (healthcare, logistics, finance) and new areas where mobile apps and ubiquitous computing combine to create new product domains. Well-known names like Oracle to small Seattle startups have jumped onto what appears to be a long and profitable ride (until the next big thing).

iInventory - Created by Thomas Kilmer, this app was designed and used for hurricane Ike. The intended use is for documenting valuables around the home or office.

Oracle Business Approvals for Managers - Requires a licensing of Oracle Business Approvals Connector. Managers can use this app to review status on assigned tasks, access reports and other data objects that support decision-making.

iChart EMR - Designed by Physicians, for Physicians. This Electronic Medical Record system can be used by Doctors to keep track of patients, patient data, order prescriptions. Since it is a mobile app it can be used in Hospital and/or Homecare settings.
