10 Ways BlackBerry Beats the iPhone

by Tom Conlon on July 22, 2009 at 01:59 PM



Better E-mail and Corporate Integration
With the release of it's 3.0 operating system, the iPhone made some inroads toward being taken seriously as an enterprise device. But, its continued lack of offline access to e-mail should be a red flag for business users (not to mention anyone who wants to read and respond their e-mail in the middle of a flight or while on the subway). And, the fact is most CIOs and corporate IT managers still view Apple's phone as either a security vulnerability or a toy. RIM's platform is practically classic at this point. Buy a BlackBerry and there's a 99.9-percent chance it'll work with your company's e-mail. Pigs will fly before the iPhone gets that kind of deployment in the corporate sphere. Remember, the folks holding the keys to this castle are the same one who wet their pants at the very thought of upgrading your work computer past Internet Explorer 6.
