Ok, now something I am really excited about: LiveCycle Workspace ES2 for Mobile devices. I was engineering lead for this project which we began earlier this year as a special bonus to our process management customers. I’ll be posting some blogs later on about developing processes that are optimized for Mobile devices, but for now feast your eyes on the info below.

Oh, and you can get the iphone application today at http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=331646271&mt=8 , although you will need an ES2 server to connect to.

Announced today, LiveCycle® Workspace ES2 Mobile, for the iPhone®, BlackBerry® smartphones and Windows® Mobile smartphones, helps organizations save time and money with faster electronic approvals.

When approval tasks only show up in email, they tend to become a needle in a haystack depending on the amount and quality of email received. The LiveCycle mobile application provides a dedicated task list “inbox” on the device where people can easily view tasks that have been directly assigned or delegated to them. The delegation view is ideal for shared queues or providing vacation coverage.

Tasks can now be quickly found while on the go, so expenses, purchase requests, invoices, contracts, vacation requests, escalations, and other HR, IT, Legal, and Finance documents and forms can all be quickly approved using an authenticated click through electronic signature on the mobile device.

LiveCycle Process Management ES2 natively supports these new mobile clients and can significantly increase the agility of workers who already face the prospect of multiple approval processes throughout their day.*
