The Blackberry storm was not included in the quarterly results. Compare them again next quarter and you will see why I mentioned that.
- Interesting. Apparently the Storm family will be launched this month. A Time magazine headline was "What the iPhone Will Envy". Maybe you could post a story when the 4th quarter's results are out. --InfantGorilla (talk) 11:00, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
The figures do not include device returns. Smart devices are often returned for a number of reasons, typically the most common is because the consumer has improper expectations as to what the device would do (speed of internet, ease of navigation service, are examples). I work in the cell phone industry, and I see our iPhone-style devices returned way more than any Blackberry, but we do not sell the iPhone it's self. I am sure, however, that there are still more satisfied, competent, and more productive Blackberry users out there than iPhone users. The iPhone is much more about style than productivity. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.62.183.19 (talk) 23:42, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
- Do you know any way we can see figures that take account of returns?
- On a less serious note, I can't see dealing with e-mail on a handheld as very productive at all. Surely it is faster to use SMS, in which case any handset will do: the e-mail can wait until you are back at your computer. The smartphone can concentrate on style and fun (videos, tunes, facebook, twitter)

How is this science?
[edit]Just because these products had origins in scientific experiments does not make this science. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.71.24.232 (talk) 06:17, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
iPhone utilization in the enterprise
[edit]The Apple iPhone has historically been criticized regarding its usefulness as a business device in the enterprise. However, with the focus on the Enterprise from Apple, the historical criticism is becoming just that...history. To further seed the iPhone as a business device for the Enterprise, H3 Solutions announced in June 2009 that Mobile Entrée natively supports all iPhone and iPod Touch devices for access to Microsoft SharePoint.—Halljasonc (talk) 21:29, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

- I am not intentionally spamming Wikipedia. Everything posted is a statement of historical fact with references which more than I can say for some of the other contributors. It is my pleasure to speak with the Wikipedia administrators if they feel the content does not meet Wikipedia standards. --Halljasonc (talk) 13:49, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
