MobileIron, a startup we profiled a month ago, today launched its Virtual Smartphone Platform. The solution is a standalone virtualization product that attaches to an enterprise's infrastructure to provide data-driven device management and cost control. It does this by creating a central view of smartphone content, activity, and applications in the data center to give IT and end-users insight into usage, and control over security and cost. The Virtual Smartphone Platform supports three of today's top mobile platforms—including Apple iPhone (see image), RIM BlackBerry, and Microsoft Windows Mobile—with Symbian and Android to come soon, according to the developer. MobileIron’s investors include Norwest Venture Partners, Sequoia Capital, and Storm Ventures.
