When you’re young and naive, you have that “one password” that you use for everything. Email, MySpace, whatever - same thing. Your bank PIN was simply the four first letters of that word worked out on the num-pad. As you grew older, so did the rest of the world and the necessity for more security.
Once you grow up, get a job, and realize you’ve got a little bit more than a measley email password to remember, that’s where an application like Splash ID comes into play. Enterprise users know exactly what I’m talking about. With the need for new/different passwords comes the need to remember new/different passwords. Thankfully with Splash ID from the folks at Splash Data, that’s finally a reality.
The only reason I come in to work on Mondays is so I can see how sauvely Mr. Bacon over at Magmic handles your questions. It’s the only thing that gets me through the week. I might be exaggerating, but I’m sure you’re all thankful as this week he handles questions regarding third party programs for your BlackBerry, reminders on your calendars, and various Bluetooth queries. Merci, Jeff.

Magmic’s main BlackBerry man, Jeff Bacon, is back with another piece for us. This time, however, Jeff isn’t answering your BlackBerry questions, but giving you the straight deal on the Pearl. You see, as a trusted BlackBerry developer, Jeff has had his hand on the Pearl for some time, but hasn’t been able to talk about it to anyone until it was officially announced (which was today, duh). So take a look at this little pearl of wisdom Jeff sent to our inbox this morning — one that might change your mind on how effective a multimedia device the Pearl will be.
