        Taiwanese device-maker High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC) and middleware vendor Research In Motion (RIM) are collaborating to expand distribution of RIM's BlackBerry Connect services, running on HTC's Windows Mobile based devices, to worldwide mobile carriers. BlackBerry Connect brings a suite of "high-value functionality" to HTC handheld mobile devices, including secure, push-based email and...


        calendar synchronization, according to RIM.

        Specifically, the new initiative deploys Blackberry Connect on HTC's current generation of keyboard-based devices, such as the "Harrier", in addition to other previously announced models.

        BlackBerry Connect supports both BlackBerry Enterprise Server for corporate users and BlackBerry Internet Service for individuals and smaller businesses. For corporate customers, BlackBerry Enterprise Server software tightly integrates with Microsoft Exchange, and IBM Lotus Domino and works with existing enterprise systems to enable secure, push-based, wireless access to email and other corporate data, according to RIM.

        For individuals and smaller businesses, BlackBerry Internet Service allows users to access up to ten corporate and/or personal email accounts (including Microsoft Exchange, IBM Lotus Domino and many popular ISP email accounts) from a single device.
