BlackBerry Connect Software

BlackBerry® Connect™ software enables mobile device manufacturers to equip their handsets with key BlackBerry® functionality that allows users to connect to BlackBerry® Internet Service and BlackBerry® Enterprise Server with their preferred devices. BlackBerry Connect software also allows organizations to standardize on the award-winning BlackBerry platform.

BlackBerry enabled devices that feature BlackBerry Connect technology are available from leading manufacturers, including ASUS, HTC, Motorola, Nokia, Palm, Inc., Samsung and Sony Ericsson, and on the Palm OS®, Symbian OS™ and Microsoft® Windows Mobile® platforms. BlackBerry Connect software works seamlessly with the built-in email and calendar applications on the device so customers can benefit from proven BlackBerry push technology while maintaining the native device experience and functionality.

BlackBerry Connect software is part of RIM’s strategy to provide an open, global platform that addresses the distinct needs of its various customers.
