I believe that this would actually work better than BB Balance because launching Knox provides a secure environment where all your productivity applications are stored, acting like a hub for enterprise applications. Balance, however, lets one manage both work and personal profiles separately. I don't know about you, but managing different profiles at once seems a bit tedious.

This is a SIGN that BlackBerry were taking the wrong PATH in their way.

BB were caught in the past era where phone manufacture leader were fighting in OS level such as Nokia with symbian, iphone with iOS, samsung with Bada, and BB with BB.

Right now, it's an ecosystem war. It's a war between Android vs. iOS vs. (failed) WP vs. (failed) BB.

If BB were joining Android, it would give them the advantage of being able to focus what they were best.... SECURITY. and let Google the hard part.

With BB10 strategy, BB seems to secure the world by having something more advance than competitor (it's not). But the end result is BB were loosing the focus and time. and TIME IS MONEY.

and now, what is late, is more ruined.... BB10 will go the way of WebOS, Kin & WP7/WP8. A failure history of mobileOS.

Nothing like focusing on what you are best at. Except RIM/BB isn't best at anything now. They could possibly have staked out a segment with a hardware qwerty offering combined with Android (especially by piggy-backing NSA's version). But now? Fuggedaboudit.

Day late and a dollar short.

Advanced security, healthcare options, mouse hovering via finger and new gesture functions, sounds like the SIV living up to expectations. Now can someone explain what kind of screen is the rumored SIV screen? I think the HTC One was supposed to have something like that, or is indeed having.

I agree with you that the security is the most important things, if proper security is not present, then there is a possibility for intruders.
