Cranky IT managers, rejoice: Forrester Research has prepared a thoroughly footnoted report that explains why you shouldn't support those pesky iPhones everyone is excitedly bringing into the office. Fortune offers a one-page summary, but warns that Apple is hiring Outlook and Exchange compatibility engineers to make your life more complicated. (Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry)

Forrester Research analyst Charlene Li now claims that she was the source of the New York Times scoop about Google's OpenSocial program, something we alluded to in a post yesterday about a quote from Li being scrubbed from the Times story. So, why did she say she spilled the beans? Turns out that Li got the embargo dates wrong, thinking that the information could be distributed as of last Friday, instead of this one. As for why the quote was pulled? The Times doesn't comment on its reporting or sources, but it was more likely cut for space in an edit than for any nefarious reason. If you've read one analyst quote, you've read 'em all. And given the number of other sources the Times plausibly could have had on this story, one wonders if Li isn't giving herself entirely too much credit.
