Insurance Times has teamed up with Isis Telecommunications, to give away two BlackBerry remote email devices.

BlackBerry is a handheld device for sending and receiving emails on the move. It also enables remote access to office features such as contacts and the corporate calendar. The device, which can be used as a mobile phone, has become very popular in the US and looks set for similar success in the UK.

Isis Telecommunications has two BlackBerry 7230s to give away, along with a one-year email contract for the lucky winners. Each prize is worth over £300.

The ability to work on the move has become increasingly important in the UK insurance sector, and we would like to find out your views on this issue. So, in order to enter the prize draw to win a BlackBerry, all you need do is answer the following questions.

Alternatively, you can fill in the survey below and post your responses to Isis Telecommunications BlackBerry Competition, PO Box 31968, W2 4SA.

The first two entries to be pulled out of the hat will each win one of these prizes.
