About RIM's security: if you run a BES, you alone control the keys used to encrypt data between the Blackberries and your BES. Even though the messages pass through RIM's servers, all they know is the routing information to get it to your BES. I remember something recently where (I believe) the Indian government demanded RIM hand over the keys to the BESes run by private Indian corporations. RIM said they could not, because they did not have them. Edit: Here's an article describing their security in more detail: http://seclists.org/isn/2008/May/0119.html http://seclists.org/isn/2008/May/0119.html (apparently, the encryption I'm talking about is an add-on feature -- news to me)
