[Asterisk-Users] Blackberry SIM card

[Kerry Garrison]

If you do have the Blackberry Enterprise Server, there are options available
to send out a policy to the devices that contains SIP server and account
information. I have seen no other way to access those settings nor do I have
any clue how they would function if I tried to set it to use my Asterisk
server. If I can borrow a Blackberry from my client for a few days, I will
try it.

You do not need the BES server.. It is nice for total wireless
syncronization but not need for it to work. 

The BB will work in three ways:

BES server, Married with Exchange server or Lotus notes. 

Internet only, you are given an address like
myblackberry at tmo.blackberry.net, you them forward your emails to it, you can
change the way email get sent so it looks like your address in stead of
myblackberry at tmo.black.... (does not work to well with Domain Keys or
SPF)

Redirector, SW is loaded on your machine (PC) and interacts with Outlook,
all mail is sent to your mailbox in an encripted file and then the
redirector 'redirects it' out to the user via your PC. 


As far as Asterisk support goes, the only support that the BlackBerry has
for Asterisk would be the Bluetooth interface.

Other nice features that are on but not limited to the BB are:

Fax to your email as a PDF. (to read you either need a space lens from the
Hubbel Telescope, or a space Electron Microscope!)

Your VM left on asterisk include caller information so that returning calls
is as easy as select and click.


As far as a SIM card, if your unit is 'unlocked' you can put in any GSM Sim
card and activate service with whiomever you fancy, provided they support
BlackBerry.
