The new Cisco WebEx Meeting Center application for the Apple iPhone 3G could become a springboard for greater Web conferencing collaboration using the world's most popular smart phone. This will be crucial to cementing the iPhone as a reliable alternative to RIM Blackberrys and Nokia Symbian devices in the enterprise mobile and wireless space.

Apple continues to answer the question of whether its iPhone is enterprise-ready. At Macworld on Jan. 6, Apple and Cisco Systems said they have enabled the Cisco WebEx Meeting Center collaboration application to run on Apple's iPhone 3G smart phone and the iPod Touch.

Available for free in Apple's App Store, the new Cisco WebEx iPhone application supports 3G mobile and 802.11 wireless networks to let users join Cisco WebEx meetings with a single click.

Once users join, they may see what colleagues and collaborators are sharing, see who is in the meeting, see and hear who is talking, and conduct a chat session with attendees from an iPhone.

A future version of the application will let Cisco Unified MeetingPlace users who aren't using WebEx Meeting Center Web conferencing to get enhanced audio information on their iPhones, including a list of participants and the names of current speakers.
