The introduction of mobile telephones in the late 1980’s revolutionised
business communication. As time has passed technology has developed and
mobile phones and business devices now play a huge part in day-to-day
business. Hand-held devices are now an indispensable business tool.
Change in working environments has lead to more people working from home
