In reply to Sebastien. That's exact;y how I read it as well. Deploying means testing / rolling out for possible adoption somewhere within a company. I never said anything about replacing Blackberries or other devices. The 70% is still very impressive though, again for a device / platform that is thought to have no enterprise pull.

I think that's not exactly how we should understand it. I think it means that 70% of Fortune 200 are trying out the iPhone. It's not like they're taking blackberries off their employees to give them iPhones. Does that make sense?
