1.1 INTRODUCTION
A Blackberry is a personal communications device developed, distributed, and
serviced by Research in Motion(RIM), a Canadian company headquartered in
Waterloo, OntarioA .Blackberry can provide email, text messaging, web browsing,
and telephone service. It is an example of a convergent device. A BlackBerry is an
end-to-end wireless email solution that allows access to your Outlook Inbox,
Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks with full wireless synchronization. The BlackBerry
Server constantly communicates with the campus Exchange server (that talks to
Outlook, among other email clients).As soon as something comes into your Outlook
for Exchange email, the BlackBerry server gets a copy and sends it to your device
through the Internet. Your device receives that information through the Internet using
your carrier's preferred network.
The process works in reverse when you make changes on your BlackBerry device that
need to be copied into your Outlook account, e.g., if you send a message that needs to
be copied to your Sent items, or if you add a contact to your Contacts list. The
Blackberry can be set up and operated wirelessly without ever being connected
physically to a computer. RIM currently offers BlackBerry e-mail service to non-
BlackBerry devices, such as the Palm Treo, through the BlackBerry Connect
software. The original BlackBerry device had a monochrome display, but all current
models have color displays . Research in Motion provides the native email system for
the Blackberry. However, RIM has cooperated with Microsoft, IBM, and Novell to
provide full two-way email integration with Outlook, Notes, and GroupWise,
respectively. Standard features on a Blackberry include calendar, tasks, notes, alarm
clock, calculator, and some games. Third party applications can be downloaded to
extend its capability. Some models available from Nextel, Sprint, and maybe other
carriers, provide GPS and cellular “walkie-talkie” service as well. Most Blackberry
are Bluetooth capable, allowing for the use of wireless Bluetooth headsets to handle
telephone calls. Because the Blackberry relies on the cellular telephone network, it is
only available through cell phone carriers .And, like cell phones, each carrier has its
own unique models. The typical cost of a Blackberry is $250-$300

2.1 WHAT IS BLACKBERRY ?
A Black Berry is an end-to-end wireless email solution that allows access to your
Outlook Inbox, Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks with full wireless synchronization.
If you cannot afford a hosted BES account, or if your company does not host a BES,
the BlackBerry Internet Service is a very capable substitute. It does not provide the
same level of security that you will find on a BES, but you can still receive email and
synchronize your contacts and calendar.

II. BLACKBERRY ENTERPRISE SERVER
Black Berry Enterprise Server (or BES) is the backbone of any corporate
deployment of BlackBerry devices. All messages and mail are routed through this
server, and administrators have finely granulated control over employee devices.
Policies dictate which applications and services can be used on a BES-administrated
device, plus they can be remotely locked or wiped when needed.
