We were fortunate enough to get to check out a very interesting online service from a company called 3CX. Their service is called Mobile Device Manager and it is very practical. It basically helps you keep track of all your mobile devices and more, via their online interface. Although the service could be useful for just about any user, it looks especially powerful for businesses or IT Managers to be able to track all the equipment they dole out to employees, including smartphones and tablets. Here's a quote from their website with an overlay of all their features:

I just set this up to test the features and I must say I'm impressed. Location is off by half a mile or so but I'm in a building right now so who knows. Tons of features which would benefit companies greatly.
One thing on the account creation...It kept saying invalid characters in account name but didn't say why. Can't have any part of your name or email address in actual account name. If you have some spare time, give this a shot and play around with it.
