Re: Blackberry and Domino?

Rob,

I didn't mean that the Archive wasn't accessible. Just that it wasn't as 
"convenient" as the users _think_ it should be.

I personally don't like the idea of a PDA and a phone in one box. I 
spend too much time working in my TX at the exact same time as talking 
to someone on the phone. I program for the Palm products and if I had to 
combine it would on the Treo line.
