The just announced BlackBerry Enterprise Server 4.1 SP5 solution will bring us finally support for HTML and Rich Text email reading on our smartphone. I have said many times, that the BlackBerry’s are a nice smartphone, but without reading HTML emails it is just like back in stone ages. Of course, there are other solutions like EmpowerPro or alike (head over to Crackberry.com to see what else is possible with your BlackBerry).
Other then support for reading HTML emails the update promises to give; Free-busy calendar lookup, Downloading of email attachments and editing, and additional features for Instant Messaging and Lotus Connections.
A very interesting new application is called the BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager and it seams it is already available now. With it users are able to:
- Update their BlackBerry® Device Software
- Install third-party applications
- Backup and restore their BlackBerry smartphone data
- Configure their BlackBerry smartphone settings
- Review their BlackBerry smartphone service information
- Create enterprise activation passwords for their BlackBerry smartphones
- Connect their BlackBerry smartphone via USB and manage more than one BlackBerry smartphone concurrently
- Obtain their BlackBerry smartphone service statistics
BlackBerry Web Desktop Manager also provides BlackBerry® Enterprise Server administrators with the ability to:
- Enable/disable BlackBerry smartphone user features
- Customize the BlackBerry smartphone user web interface to include a company logo or change text font colours
All in all the update looks to be a very impressive feature full set of applications.
