RIM, Telefonica announce "Unite!" collaboration suite

Wouldn't it be cool if there was a little, teeny, tiny BlackBerry Enterprise Server tailored to families? After all, RIM's targeting the consumer market more aggressively than ever before with devices like the Pearl and Curve, so it makes sense to offer up a full menu of software to those same folks. Enter BlackBerry Unite!, a collaboration suite that sits on a PC and lets up to five peeps interchange calendars, access Internet and PC content, share media, and even manage and lock down phones connected to the service. Look for it to launch as a free download for Telefónica in Spain next month; no word yet on when we may see it elsewhere.
