Dell finally swaps BlackBerry smartphones for Venue Pros, now that nobody else wants one
Wouldn’t you know it, but a full year after we originally reported the story, Dell has finally made good on that promise to replace its BlackBerry smartphones with the company’s own Venue Pro handsets — for the most part, anyway.

Still, the glass appears to be half full in Round Rock, with the company’s Chief Information Officer, Robin Johnson, touting the alleged cost-savings of the switcheroo.
