I have been wondering if RIM would continue their support of BlackBerry Bridge from the BlackBerry PlayBook to BlackBerry 10. Brett pointed out that the latest IT Policy document released by RIM reveals that this feature will be included. Specifically RIM made an IT Policy rule for BlackBerry 10 that allows enterprises to:
Specify whether a BlackBerry 10 smartphone can allow a BlackBerry PlayBook
tablet to access work data on the smartphone using the BlackBerry Bridge app. If you set
this rule to Disallow, the smartphone cannot allow a tablet to access work data on the
smartphone using the BlackBerry Bridge app.
There is no word on if the BlackBerry Bridge will allow access to all features of the current Bridge so I guess we will just figure out. RIM also confirms BlackBerry Video and screen sharing support along with Voice Control and Voice Dictation but that was practically a given.
