The iPhone is a consumer product. Period.

First off this is on the BES - not the OS. If your iPhone IT folks are running Exchange or the same email server. This has NOTHING to do with the device OS itself.

Unlike any BlackBerry Handheld OS issues, Might I point out that it this article:

iPhone Mail bug adds phishing danger
Be careful around the net

By John Leyden • Thursday 24 Jul 2008 14:47
Flaws in the Mail and Safari applications bundled with the iPhone leave users of the device at greater risk of phishing attacks. A URL-spoofing vulnerability means that a dodgy domain pointed to by a specially crafted URL can appear to be that of a trusted brand when viewed through the iPhone's mail or Safari browser …http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/07/24/iphone_mail_phish_vuln/


Listen, with all due respect, if a device does not even have cut and paste function or true GPS functionality (turn by turn and GPS tracking) it is certainly not even on the same page as a BlackBerry, a battery that can be esily replaced, microSD for expanded storage.


Any company that allows an iPhone in their environment is a fool. Give it a couple years to mature and then perhaps - but as of today - this is like comparing a Ford Pinto to an Armored Vehicle.



- Not secure end-to-end

- No IT Policy Management (BES with Exchange vs. Exachange alone)

- iPhone is not FIPS-140-2 (or other body) certified.

3) you act as if apple is trying to lose. they know what they are doing and will put rimm out of bussiness.

im sorry, i really am, i know you love your blackberry, but it cant stand up to iphone..]]>Jul 28th 2008 3:56PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/07/27/rim-finds-security-flaw-in-blackberry-enterprise-server/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/07/27/rim-finds-security-flaw-in-blackberry-enterprise-server/Jul 28th 2008 1:48PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2008/07/27/rim-finds-security-flaw-in-blackberry-enterprise-server/http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/07/27/rim-finds-security-flaw-in-blackberry-enterprise-server/
The iPhone may have potential someday but right now it's just not there. I never ever run into the iPhone in any of my accounts.

Also not mentioned....

> Cannot push new apps to the iPhone
> Cannot restrict which apps are installed on the iPhone (see the phishing story above- perfect case in point).



I admit to having an iPod Touch and love it. There is no doubt it is very cool. But for any company that knows what they are doing - the iPod is a gadget and the BlackBerry is a business tool.
