I am an immigration lawyer with over 15 years experience in the field. Immigration law is one of the most complex and frustrating fields of law today. This blog is an attempt to shed some light on Immigration Law.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will now use Iphones
The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) has terminated its agreement with RIM to provide agents with BlackBerry smartphones and will offer its employees iPhones instead .
Reuters indicates that this move affects about 17,600 employees and will cost the agency about $2.1 million. The ICE has used RIM's products for eight years, but it claims that at this point, BlackBerry smartphones "can no longer meet the mobile technology needs of the agency."
ICE looked at Google's Android platform as well , but it concluded that Apple's tightly-controlled ecosystem would best serve its needs. "The iPhone services will allow these individuals to leverage reliable, mobile technology on a secure and manageable platform in furtherance of the agency's mission,"
I wonder is they will become "angry birds"
