I think BlackBerry is. I love that I can sync my BlackBerry device with my Linux computer using Berry Suite just via cable. My data is nice and secure, not in clouds, on my device and on my computer. Berry Suite is such a great program, and BlackBerry is a great platform.

They use the Linux kernel. So they are Linux, even though not GnuLinux, ne? (See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/androi...s-freedom.html for an explanation.)
