PDAs, Cellphones, Wireless Today, a number of screen shots of RIM's BlackBerry OS running on a Windows Mobile HTC Fuze hit the Web. The "BlackBerry virtualization" is possible thanks to the new BlackBerry Application Suite, which is a piece of software for non-RIM devices that lets users take advantage of various RIM security features, as well as the company's "push" delivery tech. The BlackBerry Application Suite isn't currently available, but it should be soon, according to reports.

It is in fact the entire BlackBerry OS running in a VM. It loads up like a regular BlackBerry and everything.


Okay, good, so it's not just another case of the media confusing "virtualisation" with "running apps".

Thanks for the update.
