BlackBerry on REDFLY

We’ve been swamped with questions after our recent press release about supporting BlackBerry this fall so here are some answers to the most-asked questions:

Q: When can I start using a REDFLY with my BlackBerry?
A: Most likely sometime in October or November. We’ll know the exact release date soon and will announce it as soon as possible.

Q: Which BlackBerry smartphones will work with REDFLY?
A: Upon launch, REDFLY will support the BlackBerry Bold 9000, BlackBerry Curve 8900 and BlackBerry Tour 9630. We plan to support most of the new phones BlackBerry releases in the future. In order for the REDFLY driver to operate efficiently, you’ll need a BlackBerry phone with a 512 MHz or faster processor; 128MB or more memory; and a BlackBerry OS version of 4.6 or later.

Q: What other phones work with REDFLY?

A: Today REDFLY supports many Windows Mobile smartphones. We plan to support other mobile operating systems in the future. You can see an updated list of supported phones anytime at
http://www.celiocorp.com/smartphone

Q: Can I be notified when the BlackBerry driver is ready?
A: Absolutely. Sign up at http://www.celiocorp.com/subscribe for the latest news and info.

Q: If I buy a REDFLY today will it work with my BlackBerry once you finally release the BlackBerry driver?
A: Yes. However, you will need to install new firmware on the REDFLY to make it “BlackBerry aware” before connecting to a BlackBerry device. This special process may only be completed using a Windows Mobile phone so you’ll need to have access to a Windows Mobile phone in order to make your REDFLY BlackBerry aware. The firmware currently on REDFLY Mobile Companions shipping today only recognizes Windows Mobile phones.

The REDFLY Mobile Companion units that will ship to new customers this fall when the BlackBerry becomes officially supported will ship with BlackBerry aware firmware. REDFLYs purchased starting at that time will work out-of-the box with a BlackBerry phone without the need to set up the REDFLY using a Windows Mobile phone.

Q: Can I use the REDFLY I already own with a BlackBerry?
A: Most likely yes. The two currently available REDFLY models (the C7 and C8N) will be compatible with BlackBerry devices. However, you will need a Windows Mobile phone to update your REDFLY and make it BlackBerry aware before connecting to a BlackBerry for the first time. The original REDFLY Mobile Companion model C8 sold until November 2008 will not support a BlackBerry connection. If you are not sure which REDFLY model you have, please check the label on the bottom of your REDFLY device where the “Model No.” is listed.

Q: How much will the BlackBerry driver cost?
A: As with all REDFLY drivers, the BlackBerry driver will be offered free-of-charge to any existing or future REDFLY Mobile Companion owner.

Q: Can I use the same REDFLY to connect to both a BlackBerry and Windows Mobile phone?
A: Yes. The same REDFLY may be used to connect to any supported phone with the REDFLY driver installed. You can only connect REDFLY to one phone at a time so you’ll need to disconnect from a phone first before connecting to the other phone.

Q: Can I share one REDFLY between multiple users?
A: Yes. Since REDFLY stores no data, settings, or preferences, just connect it to any REDFLY aware smartphone without reconfiguring it in any way.

I ran across the REDFLY one day just surfing the web.It looked pretty interesting and substantially cheaper than investing in a full fledged laptop or netbook. I have both a Tilt and BlackJack II and switch between the both on a as I feel basis. The only knock that I had on either of the phones is that I didnt have a way to really unlock the real potential of the programs due to the small screen. As a school administrator, I often take home documents or files to work on via a flash drive, but with two small children can not sit in my basement to work continually. With a price $199 why not give it a whirl?
I received it on Halloween, and my dad, who ended up ordering one for himself, played with it for an hour upon me showing him it. Setup and syncing are super easy, and I LOVE that it recharges my phone, a definite plus for the TILT, as I work. I downloaded Logmein.com and have access to my PC at home. The keyboard is small, but i adapted quickly. I have even used it to show a Powerpoint presentation to my staff for Professional Development. My only request is that Skyfire will one day work on it, and it would be really the ultimate device. I really look forward what Celio Corp can come up with in the future. P.S. …I typed this entire review on my REDFLY!

Just received my C8 less than a week ago and I am hooked!! The mobility of this product is amazing. I have carried a laptop for years and they don’t transport very easy in a work vehicle. Looking up a map is torture on a laptop with the bulk and bootup time. With the RedFly it’s instant on and instant connect. A wonderful product and I am eagerly looking forward to whatelse Celio can come up with.

The Redfly received lukewarm reviews in the UK for two reasons. It was initially over-priced and the reviewers did not understand the rationale. You need to have the appropriate business/personal lifestyle to appreciate the Redfly. The realtime access to my email using a simple immediate-start device (as opposed to a laptop) that allows full keyboard and viewing capability is really useful. The current price in the UK of £150 from one or two

I love having the keyboard while surfing the internet and texting family and friends.I totally dig having a larger (physical) screen and even better, having more pixels to show more content at the same time.

I love not having to backup and synchronize files on another device.

The size is good and lightweight. It is durable so I dont feel like I need a carrying bag or case.

I just grab it and go.

“I was on the waiting list for Foleo. I carry the REDFLY to meetings and use our Citrix based project management and cost accounting system. I will always carry it with me. You cant compare it to the total cost of ownership of a laptop. Clearly the benefit of the plug and play to a Bluetooth phone is tremendous. I couldnt possibly over-value the fact that you have nothing to lose but the hardware price itself.”
