Pretty sweet really. <br><br>I don't see why it has to be lenovo/rim specific though. I bet I could get this to work with WinMobile, if I have a bluetooth expect card that could power it's self on periodically anyway :(]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Alex]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 1:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo and RIM's Constant Connect now available]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/lenovo-and-rims-constant-connect-now-available/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/lenovo-and-rims-constant-connect-now-available/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think it needs additional hardware because of encryption.

I'm sure AT&T would want to charge you $20 a month for the pleasure. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carl]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 2:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo and RIM's Constant Connect now available]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/lenovo-and-rims-constant-connect-now-available/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/lenovo-and-rims-constant-connect-now-available/</guid><description><![CDATA[WoW Thats Fantastic  RIM Joining With Lenovo to come up with a Solution for a Problem that Doesnt exist]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Thinkpadx60]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 28th 2009 2:34PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lenovo and RIM's Constant Connect now available]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/lenovo-and-rims-constant-connect-now-available/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/28/lenovo-and-rims-constant-connect-now-available/</guid><description><![CDATA[Why would you even need this?  This is a solution for a problem that doesn't exist and that doesn't have any bearing on effective communication.  Why not just have bluetooth keyboard profile if you need a full-size keyboard???  Why not just have VGA out for a larger screen?  Why not just use your cheaper per person BES for this very same solution???]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[White Rabbit]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 29th 2009 11:30AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
