Briefing.com Oracle interview ... www2.briefing.com Briefing.com: Will this new era of thin clients supplant networked PC's? Mr. Henley: I think the question misses the point. It's not the device that matters, but what you do with it and where the market opportunity is. Consider this: There are three times as many cell phone users as people on the Internet today. Soon, you will see people using cell phones and personal digital assistants and even their televisions to access information and conduct transactions over a network. That is a lot of users and a lot of different devices. Users will choose whatever device that best suits their needs. The demand for information, however, and the ability to deliver it will only increase. That is where Oracle comes in. Not only has Oracle been designing all our software for this network environment, but for the past 20 years, we have been continually improving our server-based software to handle this increasing demand. It's no wonder that, if you look behind virtually every top site on the Internet, you will find Oracle technology.
