Android Phones Get Dual Accounts
holy_calamity writes "AT&T is adopting technology that gives a person with an Android device two user profiles, enabling company email and other data to reside in an encrypted partition separate from a user's apps, games and unfettered web browsing.

Interestingly, Apple's current version of iOS and app guidelines exclude multiple profiles on one device."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
