Can't sleep till tomorrow !! Lol

Same. Barcelona is several hours ahead of us. So, it'd be 8.30AM there in 6 hours from now!

[farmwersteve]

Agreed Shane. Call me a traditionalists but I will always prefer a handcrafted timepiece. Much like a six speed manual gearbox. The sheer joy of rowing the gears yourself. Eventually these time old traditions give way to technology not necessarily for the better imo.

BES12: The future of BlackBerry?

At the Mobile World Congress a year ago, BlackBerry chief executive officer (CEO) John Chen introduced BlackBerry Enterprise Service 12 (BES12), a significant upgrade to its BES10 enterprise mobility management software.

Not only does BES12 support competing platforms like iOS, Android and Windows, it also brings together previous versions of BlackBerry’s platforms under one single infrastructure – a major relief for enterprise customers who had deployed both the recent BlackBerry 10 handsets, as well as legacy BlackBerry 7 devices.

BES12 finally became available in November last year, and it arrived with a new, two-tier subscription pricing model – Silver and Gold – with add-on pricing for enhanced support, encrypted messaging, VPN (virtual private network) access and BlackBerry Blend, that allows users to access their corporate data from any device.

The cost per device per year starts from US$23 for a Silver subscription, all the way up to US$110 per device per year with the bells and whistles included in a Gold subscription.

In an e-mail interview with Digital News Asia (DNA), IDC’s vice president of Asia Pacific Client Devices, Bryan Ma noted that BlackBerry has a clear advantage in this space.

“One of the key assets that BlackBerry is banking on is indeed its legacy enterprise customer base. It doesn’t matter if employees have already started using other devices like iPhones; BES12 has the ability to manage other operating systems, all while touting its reputation for being extremely secure, as well as being able to manage any lingering BlackBerry devices if there are any,” Ma said.

The key to the company’s recovery, he added, “is the ability to transform itself into an enterprise software player.”

Arguably, that’s why the future success of BlackBerry hinges on the take-up of BES12. At an investor briefing that coincided with the release of BES12, Chen (pic) said software revenue is expected to double in FY16 to US$500 million, and that a Fortune 10 client had plans to use BES12 to manage non-BlackBerry devices.

It also brought Samsung Electronics on board as a partner reseller of BES12, a tie-up that has led to reports in January this year that the South Korean smartphone giant is looking to acquire or make a significant investment in BlackBerry, which both companies have denied.

That doesn’t mean BlackBerry is giving up on the hardware front. Even though the company’s market share fell almost 70% in 2014 from a year ago, according to IDC’s latest data on mobile operating systems, the research firm noted that the BlackBerry’s CEO “anticipates 10 million units will be shipped in 2015, returning the company to profitability and marking a 72% increase over the 5.7 million units shipped in 2014.”

10 million can be seen as a decent target, primarily driven by BlackBerry’s latest devices, the Passport and Classic.

But as Ma observed, “Yes, there are of course still going to be diehards clinging to BlackBerry devices, but the reality is that those are just a niche now. The good thing is that BlackBerry recognises that and is no longer trying to be the mass-market consumer phenomenon that it was in the past.”

And a great week to everyone!

This is the song I always listen to whether to remind of me where we have been, or where we are going.
This song has gotten me through some tough times.
I have been listening to it a bit more thinking about BBRY and the patience it has required to be a shareholder. I know better days are ahead...............................

"The ability to manage BlackBerry smartphones, iPhones and Androids is a business requirement for most of our clients. With BES12, we are able to meet those needs, bringing out the best in each mobile operating system. Every day, we hear of information falling into the wrong hands, so security is a top priority. BES12 and BBM Protected ensure that personal data is always protected, even if it gets into the wrong hands. It is important that the systems running the mobile communications are monitored as well. With the use of GSX Monitor and Analyzer, we can manage the infrastructure of the whole chain, the mail server and the database." - Zekeria Oezdemir, Head of Technology at NovaLink.

BlackBerry Partners with interRAI to Deliver Efficient Data Collection Solutions in Healthcare

BARCELONA, SPAIN--(Marketwired - Mar 2, 2015) - MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS 2015 - BlackBerry Limited (BBRY)(BB.TO), a global leader in mobile communications, announced today it will provide software and support to interRAI Canada to assist them in developing mobile versions of intake screening and questionnaires for healthcare running on BlackBerry's secure end-to-end mobile solution. These custom screening applications will mobilize assessment tools and assist interRAI in their studies. The applications will be developed for the BlackBerry 10 platform and leverage the end-to-end security provided by BES12, a cross-platform EMM solution by BlackBerry�, to improve outcomes in acute care and mental health for patients.

interRAI Canada is a research, education and knowledge exchange cluster based at the School of Public Health and Health Systems at the University of Waterloo. Its focus is on promoting innovations in data, evidence, and application systems for the health and social service sectors.

"It is critical for us to have the ability to mobilize the interRAI assessment and screening systems to conduct our research and to allow healthcare workers to provide better quality care," said John Hirdes, PhD and Professor, from interRAI Canada. "Our partnership with BlackBerry gives us a secure mobile platform to mobilize our applications and access to an experienced and innovative technology partner in the healthcare field. BlackBerry provides end-to-end healthcare solutions and we're very pleased that we have their support with our initiatives."

The partnership announced today will focus on two very important initiatives. The first will be the development of a time trial application that will track nurses' time per-patient with the goal of improving outcomes in caring for patients with mental health issues. The second initiative is to develop an application that will mobilize an assessment and screening questionnaire that nurses can use to allow them to evaluate the overall health of a patient. Mobilizing the interRAI systems will improve the efficacy in acute care, increase adoption of the questionnaire and improve the quality of care to frail older persons in hospitals. Once developed, these applications will be used in clinical trials across interRAI's global network of doctors, nurses and health practitioners.

"We're excited to be partnering closely with interRAI on these two projects to provide innovative solutions for healthcare workers, and ultimately to provide better care for patients," said Marty Beard, COO at BlackBerry. "BlackBerry delivers a secure cross-platform, deeply integrated communications engine for the exchange of health information and our partnership with interRAI underscores our ongoing commitment to being at the forefront of innovation in healthcare."

BlackBerry is the leading platform for secure mobile communications and cross-platform application management. The BlackBerry platform enables solutions that provides organizations in healthcare with the best in security and privacy of sensitive data while supporting HIPAA compliant environments.

Yes, that's correct. The first and only company to offer this. The one thing that confused me was, isn't the whole point of BES12 is so that the IT manager at work could effectively manage the device? I understand BES12 is more than just that, but I was a little confused.

BlackBerry Takes to the Cloud in Bid to Attract Small Businesses - Bloomberg Business

(Bloomberg) -- BlackBerry Ltd. is heading for the cloud.

The Canadian smartphone maker said its core mobile device management service, known as BES12, will now be available for users who don’t want to run it off computers in their offices.

The new offering targets small and medium-sized businesses as well as departments of larger companies that might manage their own smartphones, Chief Operating Officer Marty Beard said by phone. “It’ll have a significant impact on our ability to attract a lot more buyers that are interested only in the cloud model,” he said.

BlackBerry has traded on its reputation for security to sell its products to governments and corporations in regulated industries, who often require software to be run on-premise. Beard said the cloud product is cheaper to set up while maintaining the company’s high standards for security.

The move fits into BlackBerry’s plan to broaden the range of customers for its products. The Waterloo, Ontario-based company has worked to make its technology compatible with phones made by other providers and signed deals with Google Inc. and Samsung Electronics Co. to integrate those companies’ mobile business tools into BES12.

Beard declined to comment on when the cloud product would increase revenue, but said it would be available in late March at a per-device charge of $23 to $90 a month, depending on the level of support services.
