Real Life Setting

Scenario
When the ICT guys start to comment on their clear choice for Microsoft’s Direct Push technology, the first director takes over. He starts telling a story about his neighbor that works for a very large company, who have investigated those 2 options and have decided that Blackberry was the only right way to go.
Mighty impressive, these revelations, and the inevitable silence kicks in.
When the first excitement is fading away, the other director bows towards the first and asks with an interested voice: “Is that Blackberry compatible with my BMW?”
Realising they’ll both be eating the same bread, he knods his head firmly, and acknowledges the other director’s worst fear: “No, Blackberry isn’t compatible either…”
Bugger(!)
