I was combing the web for some information on the upcoming successors to the E71 and E66 (the phone that you seem to loathe) and happened to stumble upon your blog. Anyhow, there's another point that probably needs to be considered in Blackberry's favor - the sense of an "extra level" of security. It's like the Linux of the mobile world whereas Symbian (S60, especially) and iPhone OS are the Windows systems that are just begging to be hacked. On a similar note, BB's proprietary OS probably has the smallest application base of all mobile platforms (Android included). That's probably another reason why corporate customers prefer BB-branded devices to other platforms that have a BB client - Sony Ericsson & Motorola's UIQ devices, for example.<br><br>P.S.: When it comes to mashing out e-mails to clients on the run, I would prefer the E61's large keypad to a small-ish E71 any day.ZainTue, 07 Oct 2008 13:41:01 -0000
