...and what does the government use? I thought the DOJ was primarily BB devices? ...Due out in Japan in January, isn't here and now and wasn't then when we looked at devices with that capability.

Federal government is one of our biggest customers. Nowhere near what BB has, but again, they were first to market.
I don't know what you are talking about Japan. Good Mobile Defense is due out in Jan everywhere.

right on, but as you pointed out, if someone has a device with a camera, like the CIO or CEO, then it would be better not to support the devices where camera was an option in the first place. ;)

Agreed. Don't support devices with cameras. But have the option to support them in organizations where they are a valuable tool, ie, Real Estate, Insurance, etc.

Wow. Pretty impressive list. Yes on some, no on others and I have no idea on others. The majority of those have not come up in discussions with my customers. Serious question, how many of those are key in most BB installations? Obviously there was a need somewhere along the way, but, in all seriousness, out of that list, how many of those features were part of the deciding factors for BES?

I don't recall the version, but I know it was the latest from Goodlink last November - February? just prior to BES 4.0 coming out.

Version 4.0 was released in March. Entirely different from previous versions, though the inbox sync, which appeared to be the deal killer in your case, didn't change.
