Are iPhone and Android New Corporate Darlings?

Looks like BlackBerry is on the verge of losing its last bastion. Research in Motion had always been synonymous with the corporate world, thanks to its powerful security features and other functions. However, a new report released by Bloomberg has suggested a shift in corporate preference. Apparently, JPMorgan has started a new pilot program for introducing iPhone and Android phone into its organization. And the transition is not stopping at JPMorgan alone, UBS is also said to be focusing more attention on iPhone for its employees.

Lately, BlackBerry seems to be in the news for all the wrong reasons. It is embroiled in controversies with various sovereign nations, which are threatening to ban its services in their countries. And now, the fact that the company is now losing even the corporate support, is likely to deal a tough blow to BlackBerry. I don't think we need to start writing BB's obituary anytime soon, but the present scenario is a big sign for the company to start making some drastic changes to its plans.  The company may look to increase its foothold in the consumer market, but it would be a tough feat, given that iPhone and Android already have strong ground in this segment. Let's see if BB can survive the storm or just becomes yet another casualty in the hands of iOS and Android.

    I smell stock manipulation for shorting purposes – this is hilarious! Why is the SEC not investigating the people leaking these kinds of things and the bloggers who are driving the stock down?
