While only having a high-level knowledge of ERP software works, mobilising 
it is usually not so much developing a client application, but a middleware 
that extracts certain infomation from the ERP database and delivers it to 
the mobile via SMS, WAP browser or whatever platform. Plenty of firms have 
solutions in this area. SAP has had a mobile version for quite some time, so 
I believe one based on i-mode is overdue... So DoCoMo are getting serious 
about corporates, it seems...

Cheers,
