Jokes aside, some IT managers say there's no option other than BlackBerry for security
The plight of BlackBerry has gotten so bad that heavy satire has stepped in.
In one example, a website recommends "how to upgrade your BlackBerry Smartphone to Android 4.2."
What follows at Yabaleftonline.com is a jailbreak that devolves into instructions to take the BlackBerry into the kitchen, fry it in a pan until crispy golden brown, then head out to buy an Android-based Samsung Galaxy S4. Funny to some, but not so funny to IT workers, especially those who have staked their reputations on the security of BlackBerry as second to none, including the more popular Android and iOS operating systems.
