The Blackberry units from RIM technologies utilize encryption schemes that are at least acceptable, and can use either email or their built in pins for transit. Very functional, not too pricey, and as secure as you are gonna get until Motorola brings forth that which they have been working on for the last 18 months or so, and even that will be military first, and cost prohibitive second.

As contradictory as this intuitively seems, is anyone aware of anything that even ADVERTISES itself as a secure mobile device? I've been asked about a 'secure' (whatever that means) mobile (say, wear on belt size, 6 oz or so) unit. Haven't been able to find out if voice, IP or what. So far, I'm flexible. ;-) Thanks! -- James W. Meritt CISSP, CISA Booz | Allen | Hamilton phone: (410) 684-6566
