A little more info on BlackBerry to add to the below. You do not have to use T-Mobile BlackBerrys with BES (Blackberry Enterprise Server, the software mentioned below). You can use T-Mobile BlackBerrys with the BlackBerry web client so your personal email comes to your BlackBerry easily and swiftly. The web address for that is www.t-mobile.com/bwc. It allows any POP3 email to come to your BlackBerry, and be viewed on the web client or via your Outlook, Outlook Express, etc. If you have a web-based email solution, like Yahoo or Yahoo for small business, you must have the account enabled to forward emails, and then you will use the web client to view email on your computer rather than the website you currently go to.
FYI, if anyone has the BlackBerry 7100t, there is an upgrade for the software, both the handset and the desktop client, on the T-Mobile website. Be aware, though, that when you connect your unit to do the upgrade, GO THROUGH THE LIST OF THINGS TO BE UPDATED AND DO NOT ACCEPT THE DEFAULTS. You will come to a screen that tells you that checked items will be updated, unchecked items will be removed. Among the unchecked items is your phone, your web browser, your task list and your address book. Make sure you check all that stuff or when you are done, your BB won't know it is a phone any more. I speak from experience <grin>. To fix it, you need to rerun the update and check the right stuff. One more thing to note, any ringtones you have stored on your BB that you downloaded will be gone after the update, also learned from experience <grin>. They say that experience is what you get when you don't get what you wanted, how true in my case! > Is this how blackberry service work? No Blackberry is a push device. Corporate blackberry products have a software package that's installed on your company's exchange server that integrates and instant pushes all email sent to you to your blackberry. You can customize this some and exclude and give priority to messages. Also when you email from a corporate setup your email from the device or from your pc appear the same to the user. On the consumer side it checks your accounts as you specify and pushes those messages to your device. When emailing from your device on the consumer side you'll likely see the email as coming from your assigned blackberry email address from t-mobile.
