  • Salesforce CRM and Visualforce are now more tightly integrated. The previous version of Salesforce CRM for iPhone introduced Visualforce Mobile tabs for developing and deploying specific mobile pages to a handheld device.
  • With Summer ’09, mobile users can add custom links to records; for example, to link to pictures of a contact right from a contact record or to link to Google news about a company. Users can also create custom links to load a Visualforce Mobile page or any Web page from any record. These links can pass record data (such as the record ID) or user data to create a seamless user experience.
  • No more lag time with mobile forms! When users fill out a new form or edit a record in Visualforce Mobile, Salesforce CRM immediately gets the updates. A previous limitation of Visualforce Mobile was that it did not immediately update local data on the device. But now, with a tiny bit of extra code, Visualforce Mobile pages can tell Salesforce CRM to grab updated records when the record is saved.
