According to a study by Trend Micro that compared four mobile operating systems, Blackberry 7 is the OS that best meets the demands of enterprise owners. RIM’s home-grown software got the highest score of 2.89 on a number of factors including built-in security, application security, authentication, device wipe, device firewall and virtualization, ahead of IOS 5 at 1.7, Windows Phone 7.5 at 1.61 and Android 2.3 at 1.37.
And still, people don’t buy them and businesses and agencies are dropping them like flies. There is also the added benefit that no one wants to steal one, so they’re also safe to carry around.
