Using Smartphones would be my suggestion just for the reasons you stated. If you were providing these to a large number of users, the choice would not be so clear. But, when supporting only 2 users, Smartphones would be the most economical and easiest to support.

Is it better to have them on the Treo 700wx and not worry about install the BES server? Install BES sound like buying new server hardware and software and updating server for only two users. Can I use the BB without the BES? -----Original Message----- From: wallace chee lam [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2007 11:43 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: Blackberry with Exchange We manage both BlackBerry and Windows Mobile on the same Exchange server. There are mixes of experience and feedback but generally the C level prefer BlackBerry coz all they need is email... period. And BES does it very well. RIM has express version that includes 1 free CAL expandable to 15. Check this out: http://na.blackberry.com/eng/services/server/offers/express.jsp On the other hand a more techie-gadget savvy people like myself would go for Windows Mobile, I have been using WM5.0 and now 6.0 Professional. They work well and also provided Multimedia experience that I need. On top of that, like Aaron said, no additional cost (licensing, hardware, administration). Troubleshooting BlackBerry devices could be pain where you sometimes involve carrier.
