BBC suspends Blackberry use after email leaks

Owen Gibson, media correspondent
Thursday October 27, 2005

The BBC yesterday admitted that it had been forced to suspend its
Blackberry email service after senior executives reported that
portions of other people's electronic conversations were appearing
in the middle of their own messages.

Among the electronic conversations to have been distributed to
other users are said to be one in which BBC1 controller Peter
Fincham commented on the suitability of Cilla Black for BBC1.

addictive within certain executive circles that it has been called
the "crackberry", with users obsessively checking for new email
messages whether at home or on the move.
