One of the thoughts behind BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express was reducing the costs companies that have employees that have their own BlackBerry devices that they want to hook up to the corporate email system. Even though employees may buy their own BlackBerry device and pay for the monthly service fee, IT shops were faced with the cost of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server and client access licenses.
If you listen to the hype machine that is Apple as well as the drones with a voice that hang on every word that comes out of the mouth of Steve Jobs, you might think that the iPhone is every other smartphone’s tail so royally, that they should just pack it up and not even try anymore. That being said, comScore just released a report for U.S.

Back in the day before smartphones had phones in them and were generically called PDAs, usually Palm Pilot or Pocket PC, two of the places that you could pick up software for them were PocketGear and Handango . Well, PDAs got a lot smarter, we now call them BlackBerrys, iPhones, and Android devices, and we usually buy software from the branded stores run by the manufacturer of our device. PocketGear and Handango are still around, and in an effort to get back into the mobile application game, PocketGear has acquired Handango creating the worlds largest cross platform, open app store. PocketGear’s App Store supports 2,000+ mobile devices and every major OS platform, connecting consumers in 175+ countries with 140,000+ paid and free titles Durham, NC — February 23, 2010 — PocketGear, Inc.

Chris Ashley from Simple Mobile Review shares his thoughts on the upcoming Windows Phone 7 and the BlackBerry As I was watching all the news coming out of the Mobile World Congress about Windows Phone 7 I could not help but think about the rumors of Microsoft buying RIM . It would be hard and almost impossible to deny that a Blackberry is the most efficient messaging device on the market today. But, it suffers from many of the same problems of Windows Mobile.

Press Release: RIM Introduces BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express Free New BlackBerry Software for Microsoft Exchange and Microsoft Windows Small Business Server Allows Companies to Empower All Employees with Wireless Access to Their Corporate Email Without Compromising Security or Manageability Waterloo, ON – Research In Motion (RIM) (NASDAQ: RIMM; TSX: RIM) today introduced BlackBerry® Enterprise Server Express – free new server software that wirelessly and securely synchronizes BlackBerry® smartphones with Microsoft® Exchange or Microsoft® Windows® Small Business Server.

It seems like every year or so the question, Should Microsoft Buy RIM, gets tossed around and eventually makes it way around the web. This year All Things Digital stirs the pot. While Microsoft tirelessly argues that Windows mobile software is on many more phones around the globe than that of competitors, the challenge is clear externally–and internally, if you listen carefully to the griping about the company’s mobile strategy, which one exec there recently admitted to me was an “embarrassment.” This is why All Things Digital’s Kara Swisher says that Microsoft may be better served by buying one of the big and more established telecom companies like Research in Motion. The fact that many sources around Microsoft are stating that Steve Ballmer has on many occasions expressed interest in buying RIM probably has a little bit to do with it as well.
