I have a realtor looking for an electronic key program that he can use for the BB. I have heard of ones for the palm phones, but does anyone know about ones for the BB and where to get them?

Thanks

No. BB's are all about security. The biggest users of BB's are government entitites. IR ports can be security problems.

I don't recall ever reading anything that proclaimed the Blackberry a universal device. They do market it as an email/phone/organizer/browser/IM device. Even the "more universal" Treo in its latest incarnation isn't compatible with Supra eKey from what I've read...
