There are many problems with the iPhone, too many to go into much detail. But by now, you should be familiar with the lack of security the iPhone provides to protect your data. We still recommend that lawyers avoid using this device until Apple properly secures it.
One of the other major complaints with the iPhone has been that users cannot run more than one third-party application at a time. The idea of multi-tasking or running programs concurrently was somehow missed during the last 3 generations of the iPhone. Finally, the new software update coming this summer will enable users to run third-party applications concurrently, with programs minimized continuing to run in the background.
Even with this update, almost 3 years after the inception of the iPhone, you still won’t catch us using one. There’s way too many evidence-rich iPhones in our lab. Great phone. Lousy security. No wonder so many law firms and corporation are mandating “BlackBerrys only.”
