Since I'm on my BB I won't quote each post. But I'll speak to FFC's
I don't know how many of you are in corporate environments, but I'll share something I was reminded about today seeing yet another laptop sticky noted.
With many notebooks coming with built in FFC's one of the popular notebook accessories is a sticky note ripped to about 1" x 1"
When asked what it is for the answer is always "I don't want people watching me work"
You can explain till you are blue in the face about no one is watching but in big brother corporate world everything you do might be watched, read, recorded
I can actually believe a topic like this came up in a round table talk about this line of BB's.
Is it worth putting the FFC in before we've built all the provisions into the management tools? Are the servers for bbm ready for the added load? What do our corporate customers want? Do we need 3 99xx's. Ffc/rfc, rfc only, no cam
The bold needs to recapture the business market. I really truly believe ffc is not worth the added cost
YET!
I'm sure I'd use it if I had it. I've used Videochat on my playbook 6 or 8 times, though the funny thing is usually its been muted and we bbm to talk since radios are going. Or lots of people are around, or in one case one of us was in a boat engine compartment and the other was on a computer using Mercnet to find an answer
I just Don't think the Blackberry userbase is FFC ready yet, let's see as more use playbooks and RIM gets the videochat kinks worked out AND they figure out a bettet compression algorithm
