Hi Barrett,

Thanks for sending along a link to the WikiLeaks cable. One section of a piece I wrote last fall, cited Reuters and the BBC on UAE plans to tap into RIM Blackberries; nice to see confirmation. BTW, have you seen the send-up that Bloomberg Markets Magazine did on Siemens selling high-tech spy gear to Bahrain, subsequently used to arrest and torture pro-democracy activists? It's a real eye-opener.
