Well I took advantage last night of pulling down the latest firmware and checking out the new features. It delivers on everything and if you don’t mind the EDGE network speed you get a pretty significant update for free.
I was able to connect to my office via ActiveSync and use our Cisco VPN to connect to the internal servers. Now I still don’t care for the touch keyboard but the new features make it worth trying again. I like that the VPN connecting even works over the EDGE network.
I also downloaded a few apps to play with and think opening the platform up will be the key in them taking on RIM. While I love my BB and its keyboard I have always wanted it to do a few more things easily. Letting developers easily get an app on the device will attract a whole new group - possibly including myself if I can get used to touch typing.
