Has anyone pay attention, that it uses Windows Mobile?
I never realize that Windows Mobile can run on Blackberry… :-)

Their probably adding a second layer of encryption on top of the current encryption that BES provides. All blackberry data running via their BES software is already encrypted using high level encryption(AES) but in this case he is just communicating with a small circle of users so we are to assume their all using devices that have been “tweaked” to give them the same high level of encryption.

The only other option was that GD device but at 3500 bucks a pop for each member of his inner circle (windows mobile too…) I think their still going with a modified BB device.

Scarhawk, only a limited number of people are actually able to email with Obama through his “secure” BlackBerry. As for the details of encryption, I’ll have to open that question to our readers as my knowledge of that is limited to dimestore spy novels.

Pretty sure he is getting a version of the General Dynamics device, which is a nice compromise solution.

Yes, encryption is two way. Each party needs a private and public “key”. The private key resides on BO’s smartphone, and he must avail his public key to whomever he will correspond with securely. The correspondent must also avail their public key to BO.

If BO must send an encrypted e-mail to Michelle Obama (MO), BO’s phone must have MO’s public key. The e-mail is then encrypted using MO’s public key, and once MO receives that email on her phone, she uses the Private Key to decrypt that email.

hope its clear.

Does everyone who talks/messages to Obama have to run the encryption also?
