    I have tried file transfer a couple of times and it's not that great yet. No drag and drop and can't select multiple files/photos to copy and paste.

    Blend wasn't really on my radar; I had the impression that it was basically a super-zoomy BlackBerry Bridge replacement. It kind of is, but bear in mind that once you've installed the software and established a link to your device, it doesn't even have to be on the same network!

    IOW, I could have left my Passport on standby at home this morning, and so long as it could connect to WiFi I could use the Blend client on my PC at work. My wife won't need Apple's e-mail app on her iPad once she can get Blend for her Z10, because she can just use Blend's Hub for all her messaging. To be fair, if the traffic isn't on the same network there's some lag, but it's not unacceptable and one assumes that it will be smoother as the software continues development.

    Even better, Blend is a strategic advantage for BlackBerry because it leverages BB's NOC network in a way that nobody else can. I've showed this off to a couple of BB-skeptics now and even they have admitted this is something new, unique, and useful. Very cool.
    Don't they have to be on the same network? So if I forget my phone at home I can just login with my tablet... just no call access?

    When you launch blend on your PC or tablet it prompts you for your bbid and let's you choose the device associated with that bbid. And then it connects.
