RIM To Offer Multiplatform Device Management

Aryden sends this quote from an IDG News report: "Research In Motion is taking on mobile device management for Android and Apple iOS devices as well as its own products, introducing the BlackBerry Mobile Fusion product, on Tuesday. BlackBerry Mobile Fusion is designed to simplify the management of phones and tablets that run RIM's current BlackBerry OS and the emerging BBX platform, which is based on the QNX software that currently powers RIM's PlayBook tablet. But Mobile Fusion will also manage devices using the two biggest mobile OSs, Android and iOS."

What? So I can enjoy service interruptions? by joshamania · 2011-11-29 10:43 · Score: -1, Flamebait

Wonderful, brilliant even. Wouldn't it be fantastic if you couldn't get gmail on your phone whenver RIM decided to have a service outage? Seriously...when was the last time any decent technology company had a three day outage? WTF? It's email...not rocket science.
