RESTON, Va. and ATLANTA, Nov. 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Siemens Enterprise Communications and AirWatch today announced a partnership to simplify the implementation of mobile unified communications and managed mobility solutions as the new "bring your own device" (BYOD) reality continues to take hold.
