Hi all.

A few weeks ago, I posted a message asking for more information about
Blackberry "emulators"

I was pointed towards an article in the "Four Hundred Stuff" of June 1, 2004
- at http://www.midrangeserver.com/fhs/fhs060104-story01.html  - about using
a Blackberry device to connect to our iSeries / i5 (whatever name it > goes
by now).

And Blackberry do in fact have an evaluation version of NeedTEXT Shell - at
http://www.needtext.net/shell/eval.jsp

We are waiting the Blackberries to arrive - the Network manager liked the
idea so much that he asked (and it was approved) for a Blackberry for each
IT support person.

Blackberry browser is really good.  But John is correct. There is not yet a
lot of 3rd party software written for Blackberry yet.  On the other hand,
Blackberry uses Java 2 micro edition as it's operation system which means
it'll run pretty much any java software. Also, they offer a SDK for free on
their website so you can write your own software for your Blackberry if you
are so inclined.
