Quick, name the top business device in North America. Blackberry! Even NASA knows that.

The NASA team including astronauts and other employees will most likely be getting some fresh new Blackberry’s to stay in touch with each other. Apple’s iPhone was on the list, but unfortunately got knocked off because they are not enterprise ready. The decision made by NASA’s outsourcing office could have been sparked by a few security concerns that the device may have. So Apple iPhone it may not be, but new Blackberry 8800’s from RIM, or Palm Treo 750’s could be surfing the mobile web and catching NASA emails very shortly.
