RIM lists “Top Five Features of BlackBerry 7 for Business Users” – Is this the best they could come up with?

August 10, 2011 by Robb Dunewood 4 Comments

Over on the Inside BlackBerry for Business blog, Research in Motion has listed the “Top Five Features of BlackBerry 7 for Business Users“.   Those features are:

  1. Documents To Go® Premium
  2. BlackBerry Messenger 6
  3. BlackBerry® Balance™ Technology
  4. Liquid Graphics™ Technology
  5. Voice-Enabled Universal Search

Seriously RIM?  You’ve have got to be able to come out with a better list than this…

You can already get Documents to Go and BlackBerry Messenger on BlackBerry 6 and earlier versions of the BlackBerry OS.  BlackBerry Balance is kind of cool and addresses a real problem for consumers that buy their own BlackBerry devices, but, have all their personal stuff controlled by their corporate IT policy.  Liquid Graphics = Graphics on par with competition and Voice-Enabled Universal Search, from the description in the post, sounds like it would be much more useful to a consumer as compared to a business user.  There is like one really cool thing in this list…

I’ve been asked more than a few times by business users if they should upgrade to a new BlackBerry 7 smartphone, or, just stick with the device they have until QNX on the BlackBerry comes out.  I don’t think this list is going to do much to get them to buy now as compared to waiting.

    I have another year and a bit to go on my contract.  Hopefully by then, there’ll be good QNX devices…

    With all due respect to RIM, the Droid Incredible 2 (a mid-range phone) has a full Microsoft documents suite, several leading instant messengers (and now Facebook), Multiple “scenes” that is more fleshed out than BB Balance, technology that is above and beyond “liquid graphics” and the entire phone is voice enabled (can’t voice dictate an email on BB7). 

    They come across as VERY behind with that list!

    I am a business BlackBerry users and just got a 9900 on Rogers last Friday.  After playing with it all weekend, I can tell you that it is the best BlackBerry that I’ve ever seen.  That being said, it really doesn’t anything that my old 9700 didn’t do, it just does them much better.  There really is no new application that I plan on using, and, probably wouldn’t have upgraded if I had the 9780, so, I glad that I held off on getting the 9780 when my plan was up in June…
