What are people using to protect mobile devices?

[James Moore <jhmiso () RIT EDU>]

At the National Webcast Initiative yesterday
(http://www.msisac.org/webcast/ ), the speaker looked into the not too
distant future and talked about protecting the mobile infrastructure.
He talked about A/V, firewalls, even IPS for handhelds (phones, PDAs).
I did a little digging and found some of the offerings from the major
A/V players, but also found some specialty/niche vendors, like SMobile
that offers BlackBerry IPS, and BES A/V.  Also Trust Digital seems to
focus on the Mobile market.  Has anyone done an analysis in this area?
