every single email doesn't go through Waterloo Ontario. If I were in charge of the CIA I'd LOVE RIM. You only need to tap communications for one site and you have ALL the email travelling to/from every Blackberry.
This is also one of the biggest reliability issues with Blackberry's. Every time the servers in Waterloo hick-up, BB users everywhere have issues sending and receiving emails. RIM is finally building a second location (in Texas) to provide redundancy.
I know of several companies that have dumped BB's in an effort to reduce mobile costs. They are finding that ActiveSync devices provide email as reliably or even more reliably than BB's at a much lower cost.
