Thank you MacRumors for posting this. I like to keep up on Apple's competition.

There's a difference between DEAD and MARKET SHARE.

Just because you don't have as much or less than a "competitor" doesn't make you dead.

If that were the case - you could say the MAC is dead.
 
RIM's purported "encryption" is actually a myth, subject to a company's cloud "reliability" and practices that are currently banned or under scrutiny by many countries...or have you missed the news lately?

As for the PDF hole, security issues will always exist - that doesn't mean the iPhone is less secure or less "enterprise-friendly" than other phones, as Forrester Research has just acknowledged.

Its under scrutiny by a Country that jails people for kissing in public.

As for Android and Exchange... Froyo gives Android just as much as iOS4 gives.

You mean the counties that want to spy on their people and they are wanting to ban blackberries because they can not crack the security on it.
Those counties have demand that RIM give them a way to read messages sent threw BBM and the email.

Funny thing is even RIM can not read those messages. All rim receives is encrypted messages from the blackberries and that is all they send out.
Each packet is broken down to a 2k chunk. Yes each chunk can be cracked by brute force but you only get 2k of it and have to brute for crack the next one. This means it time wise it takes a huge amount of time to crack it. All encryption on computer is that way.

Sum it up the counties wanting to or are banning blackberries are the same ones who want to spy on their own people and well they cann't with with blackberry.

Blackberry is considered military grade. Iphone is not.
 
Yawn. RIM.

Garbage hardware. No soul to it...
Garbage software. No soul to it...
 
exclusively AT&T
$199 with new contract
iOS 4 > Blackberry 6 OS
In what way is RIM corrupting peoples minds to buy Blackberrys instead of iPhones?

those who need a real tool rather than a toy?

those who need a good telephone?

i wouldn't have an iPhone even if you were paying...!
 
It's a 624MHz processor. In a flagship BlackBerry.... In 2010...

Does it need more? Have you used one? What would the added power bring?

A lot of posts (like yours) are funny to me. As if putting down the competition makes you feel better about your iPhone. You don't have to put down something else to enjoy what you have.
 
Enterprise will do what it always does: spend a fortune on hardware and an army of IT staff to ensure the device is configured to do nothing more than read email - for security reasons of course.
