It is estimated that more than one billion people will have a tablet or smartphone by 2016. Of that number, 350 million smartphones will be used at work, according to a recent  Forrester study.

LifeSize, the video conferencing division of Logitech, presents three BYOD personalities and explains what companies need to look out for when working with them.
