»RIM To Offer Blackberry Service To All

RIM will introduce software to emulate all the functions of a Blackberry for Windows Mobile 6.0 devices. <a href="http://www.mercurynews.com/business/ci_5737804">This will allow people using those devices to connect to a BES machine just like a normal blackberry</a>. It still sucks.

The software, due in the fall, is designed to extend BlackBerry's dominance by offering an option to individuals who may not want to switch devices to get the service, and to companies that would like to give employees a wider selection of handhelds without being forced to support multiple mobile e-mail platforms. The application replaces the Windows layout and icons on the display with the look of the BlackBerry interface, customized to the specific buttons and screen size of that device. A non-BlackBerry device would then be able to connect with BlackBerry servers for e-mail, calendar, address book and other applications written for the platform by RIM and third-party developers.
