I'm surprised this got by without further discussion other than the dribble .. err comments with the story itself. This is a huge milestone for WP and likely the last nail in BB's coffin.

I will agree another milestone that was required for WP to be successful in the enterprise, government, medical sector's that require this type of certifaction. Now we just need the vpn support. Hopefully more Companies will start purchasing WP because of this.

Nice Bitlocker and Bootloader

It wont be though. BB wasn't the only device to have this. iOS 6 recently got FIPS 140-2. Heck, there are Samsung Galaxy devices with this certification.

Maybe not but it was their last safe-haven.
