A new survey of U.S. smartphone users reveals a majority of them want to use mobile devices, including tablets like the upcoming Apple iPad, for work as well as personal activities.
Yet the same users also see only limited productivity gains because they can access so little of the personal and business information they need. The online survey polled 2,443 respondents, all adults with mobile phones. Of these, 770 were smartphone users. The study was commissioned by Sybase, which sells several mobile applications for enterprise customers, and conducted by Zogby International, which polled its online panel, a cross section of the U.S. adult population.

I do not think its the application or the accessibility that is the problem. more the size of the phone and the keyboard that can make it very hard to use when it comes to collecting or sending personal data.
