Hi John,
Here's my perspective of this if it helps.... 1. "Push" email, including in the case of blackberry's is not an ability which is handset dependent. It has to do with the network and email architecture. The real "magic of push" is in the polling server. 2. Even the ability for a phone to run an email program is not an issue since you can always poll an email server and "push" the email via an SMS gateway. I know of atleast 2 such implementations on a personal level and I know there are multiple more specially for network/server down status updates. Last I spoke to blackberry they were still looking into integrating their server with a possible open source MTA such as sendmail/exim/postfix etc. Not sure of the status currently. I can do a 4-5 slide talk on how blackberry works in the next lug meeting if 1) the topic is appropriate (considering its not open source), 2)my work allows me to attend the next meeting.
