RIM Emulates Blackberry On Windows Mobile
now what?
now i'll have to figure out if there will be a device that will replace my pearl. 🙂
it's everything i need, but it doesn't stream windows media. if i could combine blackberry email, slim design, good camera, ptt, and windows media - that would be phenominal

Well, if your smart enough to be with Cingular, everything you mentioned, including ptt, is available on the Cingular 8525, I'd be just a tad hesitate though to refer to it as a slim design though.

work for them 😉
8525 is too large. i have found the Pearl to be a perfect size. i have a 3125, but it doesn't have PTT. obviously, the new RIM emulator will only be on Windows Mobile 6, so i have to find out what new phones are on the horizon with that...

In my store we haven't sold a single blackberry since i've worked here, it's been all treos, and now recently a lot of moto Qs, with the occasional ppc 6700. so i really have no experience with all of the blackberry apps. my big question is if running these apps on a windows mobile device would you need a specific blackberry data plan, or would you be able to run a standard data plan like with the windows mobile devices. (ps i'm speaking in reference primarily to sprint, but am assuming this won't be too different accross the board)

I don't see why you would have to include a phone in the emulator, since the Windows Mobile part already has one. Phones don't change much...

I'm sure that it will. Considering you have to have a special plan for blackberry connect for Treo's and Nokias, it would only follow you would need on for the windows mobile devices.
I just hope they get it right this time as I HATE dealing with the 9300 and the E62 with BBC - the devices are POS with POS extra software to make it act like a blackberry.

They are not POS devices. You need to sit down and get used to them. They are totally different devices from anything we carry and are not for the faint of heart. They have a niche in our lineup that they fill very nicely.

I disagree, I have used both devices extensively as I support them and the E62 and 9300 are POS - neither functioning as well as advertised. They are the most despised devices in Data Support

Of course you haven't sold any blackberrys since you have worked there. You deal with CDMA. CDMA blackberrys are a joke.

The problem with devices that try to do too much is that they end up doing nothing very well... Emulations usually run slow and might be buggy so they probably won't have the full suite of software. Anyone remember trying to run the Palm emulator on Windows handhelds?
