Finally a business oriented application has been released for the iPhone. FMWebschool released a video of FileMaker websites on the iPhone.
That means you can use database-driven sites on the iPhone such as for a delivery company, or larger companies that use other work-order based systems. I suppose it could even be used in the IT world for part of a problem ticket solution.

One example that was laid out was of a florist delivery driver. He would be able to connect to the database on his iPhone, select the next delivery, then click on a link for Google Maps directions, and then when he was done he could change the status to completed and it wouldn’t just update on his phone it would update on the database too.

Another good application or at least one with a lot of potential. The GPS application was what I was really looking for and Navizon is starting to make an effort, but it was not quite there. This application seems a little more refined and polished for actual use. Good post.
