Was reading the newspaper and it said that blackberries are the most vulnerable to hackers, so they said there is a new security patch out as of today....Did anyone hear of this and where can I get it?

I doubt this very much.
As far as I know, no one has ever hacked a BB.

As far as I can tell the security vulnerability has to do with the attachment services IN Blackberry Enterprise Server. Something to do with code being routed in pdf files.

Don't open e-mail attachments from unknown addresses, fixed.

Yeah there is something not right about that story. As a matter of fact reports came out stating that drug dealers, criminals etc were using blackberries due to its security and its harder for authorities to intercept their messages etc.

Well I read it in the metro philadelphia newspaper. It was a small article.

It's only BES related... I believe the patch is for BES itself, I could be wrong on that though. Either way if you're BIS, you're fine... If not, your company should be telling you the scoop any way.
