Here's the differentiator: iPad, iPod touch *and* iPhone will be able to use iMessage. Also, you pay X amount extra per month for the BB data service, whereas iMessage will not require some ridiculous upsell just for their service.

You don't need a cellphone to use iMessage, either.

Nice one, Apple! :)

You ALSO pay X amount of extra per month for Data service of your provider = iPhone or iPod Touch/iPad (WLAN at home you're paying for internet, just like the BlackBerry, while remotely for provider data you're paying for the data service - on blackberry its NOT an add-on its part of your data package).

where did you come up with that?
 

EXCELLENT!!! I hadn't known that and thus I stand corrected. Excellent find. Now how many have they actually deployed? Still looks like a case study though.

I am aware that Lotus Notes has been supported on Mac OS X since v7.1, quite a few years, and also about iNotes (still mostly a web-app). They do support MacBooks now since using a dual boot or VM where an image is virtualized on a Mac.

Good start so we'll see where this goes.
 
Nokia used to be nice in the 90s.
BlackBerry nah...

Like Ford cars were in the early days... Ford is still around making some cars and trucks...they changed but they are still Ford without Henry Ford.

As Apple is what it is because it is Apple with his mastermind behind them.

WhatsApp for nowadays and maybe iMenssenger when it comes out.
