A lot of people like k9mail. I tried it, but prefer the HTC client that came with my Evo for exchange, and the gmail client for my personal accounts.
A lot of this discussion has centered on remote wipe, but I want to reiterate that centralized management is my concern. I have a small installation, probably 40 BBs started with BPS 20 months ago, and moved to BES about 6 months ago when we outgrew BPS. Phones are just a part of my job. I used to support Treos. With the Treos I could spend hours on a single phone problem, and these problems occurred at the rate of 2 a week average. Since adopting a BB server solution, I probably have only had a single individual phone problem that didn't involve activation. The rest have all been global (CDO and MAPI) that I could fix centrally and easily. Probably my most frequent service call comes from people asking if they need to change their BB password when they change their network password. I don't want to go back to the situation I had with Treos. With my workload, I can't afford to. I can honestly say that, among my systems responsibilities, BES is the most stable technology that I use.
