SmallBusinessHub is putting forth a valiant effort to combat all the iPhone hype with some great Blackberry tips:
This is the week of that omnipresent Apple device whose name will not be mentioned. I’m going to resist the temptation to write about that device and the uber-cool people that bought one and instead like to address […]

Yesterday I panned the iPhone for business folks, at least for now, but with the announcement of “iZoho” today maybe I could be wrong. Read/Write Web has this to say:
Conclusion: Watch out Blackberry!
In response to a question from Simon Leyland about business use of the iPhone in our previous post, a commenter named Dan responded:

The problem is that if you let all the e-mail through, your Berry might be pinging (or whatever your alert sound is) all the time. At first I just tried routing everything through GMail and that worked pretty well. Then […]
