Good news for BlackBerry...

Mobile Security, the Feds and BlackBerry

The key pull from this: For the record, the total amount of devices that the DoD will eventually order, when their new secure MDM platform is fully operational, will be north of 500,000 devices. And while the DOD is currently only using about 80,000 BlackBerry devices form it current inventory, eventually I expect the DOD to order most of their devices for its new MDM network from BlackBerry anyway. And the number will not be 80,000 but much bigger than that.

Awesome news...

That's great news

Hope this happens! BlackBerry seems to have stabilised publicly anyway. Just need the support from the larger enterprises.

Interesting article. BlackBerry has its destiny in its hands.

Let's hope for the best! Mr. Chen and team BlackBerry needs to keep up the great work and not stop fighting!

Keep The Faith ? BlackBerry Q10 ?

Mr. Chen should go for a visit to the DoD himself. Then a little photo op outside for the world to see.

Last I heard was it was 650000 ios devices

either way it's great for BB.

if it's BB devices then it's a bonus.

if it's iOS, they will be getting a lot of money from BES licences.

Let's also remember that the NATO ordered BB10 devices. I mean that speaks volumes. DoD would have been better though.
