Modern offices rely heavily on electronic documents in their daily processes.

Such ability not only allows for gains in productivity, but accomplishes this with significantly lower costs, as it does not require extensive reengineering of the existing processes within the company.
The discussion in this session explores how TV Guide Inc., deployed an off-the-shelf wireless document management solution from DynoPlex to their BlackBerry device and achieved significant cost savings at a very low cost.
