Could it be that another large corporation is moving over to the iPhone? ZDNet Australia has reported that global bank HSBC is considering dropping the BlackBerry in favor of the iPhone. If this is indeed the case, that would mean an order of 200,000 iPhones would be coming down the pipe for Apple. I hope they have production cranked up to full tilt.

One would have to agree that having a large entity such as HSBC even consider the iPhone is a big thumbs up for the new Enterprise features built into the 2.0 Firmware.

Could be a domino effect here. Once enough large organizations move over… it could trigger another, then another… But who knows. Look for RIM to battle back with the release of the BlackBerry BOLD looming large!

Rogers has now officially opened up the iPhone 3G pricing plan to other 3G handsets, including the Samsung Jack, Palm Treo, Motorola Q9, Nokia N95 and HTC TyTN. The plan is the $30/6GB ‘limited promotional offer’, and is available on a 3-year contract. One can only hope this offer will apply to the upcoming release of the BlackBerry BOLD as well… and I certainly hope this isn’t a ‘limited time’ offer, they should really put something more permanent into place.
