Re: ISED-L Digest - 30 Aug 2010 to 31 Aug 2010 (#2010-227)

There are no apps for other phones, although a Blackberry one is in the
works. Other phones can receive mail, calendar, and contacts with IMAP
enabled. We have many users use this functionality. They cannot, of
course, see conferences and other areas on their FC desktops as they can
with the mobile app for the iPhone, iTouch, and iPad.
