Jason,

It’s definitely a step in the right direction, however the BAS web interface still needs some work to make it a little more user friendly. I am hoping that RIM introduce a right click option!

Neville,

The pictures you see are thumbnails – click them to make them larger

Thanks very much for the comments.

Hi mate,

I cannot see the pictures; are they meant to be that small?

This is awesome – it looks like RIM has streamlined a great deal of tasks that were monotonous. Plus, the new Web interface definitely simplifies the bloated BlackBerry Manager tool.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks very much for pointing that out. That line was indeed misleading, which was not my intention! I have since edited it out.

Sorry about the confusion.

I enjoy your blog, but you are incorrect on the HA options for BES from Double-Take. It is NOT a per-user expense, as it is loaded on the BES server itself.

Thank you.
