IBM's MaaS360 can separate business from personal with a secure container today (iOS, Android and Windows Phone 8.x). Plus it's UI doesn't suck like a lot of container solutions. It will be great to see what other new capabilities they will provide working closely with Apple.
I'd never move back to Blackberry! The phone itself is un-usable!
Apple has made me dumb as a consumer.
Last week, I left my iPhone at home and wanted to make a quick call, so I borrowed my neighbour's phone, which was a BlackBerry, with about a 100 keys.
I just stared at the phone for about 30 seconds until the neighbour understood my plight and offered to dial the number for me.
I never felt that stupid in a long, long time.
Come to think of it, the last time it happened was when I was trying to navigate my cousin's Galaxy S3.
Sure IBM will want to focus on the supply and management of iOS devices.
However IBM's MaaS360 already provides a solution for BYOD, with a container (email, docs etc) which doesn't suck like many do - Not Good :-). Their container is for a number of mobile platforms like iOS, Android and Windows Phone, but it will be interesting to see what additional features they might develop in closer partnership with Apple.

Have you ever tried the new blackberry 10 device?
No, I wasn't trying out phones. I just needed to make an urgent call and the closest phone was a BlackBerry with the QWERTY keyboard.
