Re: Meet the T-Mobile G1
I don't understand why Google chose to ignore the corporate user base with this phone (especially given the nice keyboard, etc.). By not including native exchange support, a large percentage of users won't even consider this phone (myself included). Even Apple put it into the iPhone even though they don't have a keyboard... I read in an interview that Google is expecting 3rd parties to add this feature, but I wouldn't count on this being done well right off the bat... The other issue with this device in the corporate environment is security and locking it down will be difficult due to the open source approach that Google has taken. Maybe they figured that they didn't have a shot a the corporate customer due to this and that is why they didn't go after Exchange.
