Could it be that this is part of their Enterprise functionality. It isn't used correctly now, but if an enterprise wanted to allow an iPHone to be deployed more officially they would want this level of monitoring on it. Most companies can do this level of monitoring in some way on WiMo devices if they put the right software on the front and back ends. I would be surprised if BB doesn't have something similar already.
