You trust RIM? You trust your network personnel, your CEO, your telephone technician, yourself?

Yes, the technology AT&T is offering is nothing new, wasn't even before it had acronyms, they are offering a service. Your call, is it feasible, economical, are the risks acceptable, etc?

It is not often I take a stand for a big company (they don't need my opinion) but they are useful and can be very beneficial in some cases. The more options we have, the better, and the security is something some small (and even large corporations) don't seem to be able to handle (easily) themselves.

Now, AT&T is a very technical corporation and very capable to make many things happen but to use their services is your call, as always! And I have found them very (amazingly) open, 20+ years working with them (Bell, whatever) and always able to negotiate and to get very good support when needed, just ask!

That was professionally - personally, of course I don't like their billing systems, still messed up after Cingular integration (heh!)
