BlackBerry mobile broadband users 'can transfer Microsoft emails to device'
Monday 22nd February 2010, by Daniel King
A new software option for BlackBerry users is to provide access to Microsoft Exchange email accounts via the handset's mobile broadband connection, Research In Motion has announced.
The BlackBerry developer explains that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express software allows Microsoft Exchange accounts to be synchronised wirelessly from the handset - including the inbox, tasks, notes, contacts and calendar entries.
Files stored on company networks may also be accessed via the BlackBerry's mobile broadband signal, even if they are behind a firewall, once the correct security settings are in place.
Mike Lazaridis, president and co-chief executive officer of Research In Motion, says: "In a marketplace where smartphones are becoming ubiquitous, BlackBerry Enterprise Server Express significantly raises the bar by providing a cost-effective solution that allows companies of all sizes to support enterprise-grade mobile connectivity for all employees without compromising security or manageability."
Existing users of the BlackBerry Enterprise Server should be familiar with the level of security offered by the software, as the architecture behind the two systems is the same.
Research In Motion previously announced the launch of BlackBerry Presenter, which gives users of the smartphones the ability to deliver presentations directly from their phone.
The compact device is compatible both with Bluetooth wireless connectivity and with direct cable connections via USB and a standard video wire.
By storing the presentation file itself on the BlackBerry, users can remove the necessity of having a laptop in order to deliver a slideshow or speech, potentially enhancing their freedom of mobility and increasing the range of environments in which shows can be conducted.
