Bye bye BlackBerry mail

Martin Guthrie

SMS??

"BlackBerry pioneered the idea of pushed e-mail, with an architecture based on a central server and a genuine-push mechanism based on notifications sent over the SMS channel. It was a clever idea, but is starting to look slightly dated now "

Erm, no they didn't - because it doesn't and never has used SMS (which is a fairly slow and unreliable way of sending *any* sort of info). You don't actually know how it works at all do you?? Perhaps you ought to do a little more basic research before typing this sort of twaddle!
