All communications are screened by the government here and because Blackberry have encryption they can't do this. So the answer is to ban it.
Now UAE is trying to sell itself as the centre of the universe for business and travelling, which means people that have Blackberry's when travelling ( guests to UAE and business people) won't be able to use them in the UAE. This seems a little inconvenient.
Now with one retail outlet claiming outrageously to sell 3000 units a week, I think there will be the inevitable compromise before 11/10/2010.
Big Brother still lives!!
