BB's are managed by the company (at least mine are) and can be locked down (to 
some extent - you can't solve stupid!) AND remotely wiped. Our users have to 
sign a security form before they get their hands on one and all of our devices 
are company owned.

So Blackberries and any other service shouldn't be used either.  That's a
3rd party who can view all your email.

  The problem is that security *never* shows up as a profit.  (Unless
you're a security firm, heh.)  So if we follow that logic, all
security should be banished.  Of course, security failures show up --
as losses, when it's too late.

  The thing that really gets me about this is that people simply
*assume* LogMeIn, GoToMyPC, etc., are trustworthy.
