I think the only times I've seen anybody use PDAs to exchange contact
information were at IETF meetings, in the hallways, when people had time
to kill. It just takes too long. Typically, when two companies are
meeting, and you've got, say, four people on each side, everybody swaps
business cards in under a minute, and you're done. Doing the same thing
via IR would hold the meeting up too long.
Please keep in mind two things
1) I wrote
"I am not too enthusiastic with all that internationalization" ;-))
2) I used the example with PDAs mainly for international contacts. Maybe
our company is to small, but most of the time I have face to face
contact to people of foreign companies they are from a local
subsidiary and they have a local domain on their cards. So with most
of the meetings (for me at least) this would be a non issue.
