@Jaianne Dickszcator: It probably means your IT support doesn't have encryption required in order to provide Exchange support. In which case, either the information being passed around just isn't that important or they're incredibly lazy/stupid. Take your pick.
@Asherek: nein, our IT worked with the phone, to have a secure way for it to access the web based version of our exchange client, this based upon me trying to use it before the changes they made to how it accesses that server. i was not ever able to get it to work, and after our IT, figured out how to not only allow it to access, but have full push notification as well. so im guessing, it is now dependant on how its set up, as our exchange server still requires certificate authenticity.
@OMG! Ponies!: You got it all wrong. It doesn't break your shit. Your shit was always broken. They just updated to point it out.
It's like when a webpage doesnt view properly in firefox but not in IE. It's the webpage and IE that's broken, not firefox. Even though the page works in IE.
@zmnatz: Still, I'd love to see the new argument in action.
"The iPhone is the greatest business device ever"
"Is that a 3G?, let's see you update it to 3.1"
"Jerk"
@chaoss13: They didn't break anything. They just removed a rather inartful kludge from the system. Now, it works betterer inasmuch as some joker's simplistic workaround isn't there to interfere with the simple elegance of the iPhone 3G.
@OMG! Ponies!: That is some impressive spin. "Some joker" was Apple, wasn't it? It was Apple's simplistic workaround - lying to Exchange server. Now that the lie has been removed, previously available functionality (syncing with Exchange Server) is gone. If I update to 3.1, I won't be able to use my 3G for work-related email and calendar reminders anymore. How anyone can call this "working betterer" is beyond me. It seems worserer for me. Much worserer. er.
3) Does the comment seem to be something other than favorable?
If you answered yes to all three questions, then I'm being a sarcastic ass. If you answered no to any of these questions, then I'm just being an ass in general.
@dambo29: That actually was an android related comment:
This week, NitroDesk rolled out TouchDown, "the world's first on-the-phone solution for accessing your Exchange Server email, contacts and calendar on Android-powered handsets."

In this case, apple lied about Exchange support.

Not owning an iPhone, I cannot figure out my own answer. Can you go backwards in OS versions?

1) Am I commenting?
2) Is it about Apple breaking something?
3) Does the comment seem to be something other than favorable?
