i thought with blackberry web client you can add up to 15 POP accounts that will forward to your device but it checks those accounts every 10 or 15 minutes. i thought you had to have an account on a blackberry enterprise server to get instant email.

i know the new t-mobile 7100t "charm" device comes with aol, icq and yahoo IM installed, but i didn't know the other blackberry devices could handle that.

i also like the fact that with a blackberry you can get internet service whenever you have a GPRS signal. with the pocket PC's it sounds like you have to be near a wireless signal/bluetooth.

All Blackberry's come with a PIN (Blackberry to Blackberry) and an E-Mail address for instant e-mail which is usually (Your Desired Name) (AT) (Subscriber)(DOT) (Blackberry) (NET) Confusing ? Not really [email protected]. You don't need an enterprise server and if you really wanted to you could run a semi-server off your computer.

POP3 gets polled for every 10min. I have my POP3 forwarded to my "nextel.blackberry.net" e-mail account so I get it instantly.

But to be honest if e-mail is not your thing, then these other products have better OS's and you might want to take a look at them. They make things look prettier I guess.

If you need instant real-time e-mail with the perks of an organizer, a task reminder, web browser, AIM etc then go with the Blackberry.

If you need the perks first and not too worried about e-mail then go with a Palm.

This is my last post on the topic...i feel like a fucking Blackberry salesman

you use the AOL messenger on the sidekick, you just enter the icq# instead of screen name

and to log on you just enter you icq# and password instead of the aol nick and password


Glad someone figured it out. The dealer couldn't tell me how to do it and hiptop.org was no help.

OK one more post.

go with a Palm system. Seems like you'd be happier going that way! Hey I'm even thinking of trading in my Blackberry as soon as the Motorola I930 smart phone comes out for Nextel :thumbsup Thats going to run Mobile Windows

I believe it also supports Yahoo but I don't have Yahoo Messenger so I dunno. You can set certain responses to certain words or letter combinations. Its amazing....Its like I'm running an answering bot.

Is there anything this thing doesn't do?

:helpme

Do you have an upgrade for the browser, too? Adam says his is pretty bad for viewing web pages.

Yah the provided NOL browser sucks. Download ReqWireless' web browser. You can get the Trial for free or buy it for $29.95 one time payment. It browses full HTML pages, Images, Java and all. I think the only thing people run into problems with is Active X. I can easily post here on GFY on it, and check my bank account statements. Never tried logging into Paypal though but I'm sure it will work. Only problem is that its not that quick....comparable to a 56k modem.

and one more thing, are the pocket pc's the only thing that you can install software on? i want to be able to install putty.


Your decision is really a matter of personal preference. if you want email, messaging, and putty, i would highly suggest pocket pc.

Verizon has a new pocket pc that just came out that you have to call to get called the vx6600. you can get an unlimited data plan for $45 per month and i think you will be pleased. Verizon has done a rollout of EVDO to certain major cities and is not stopping. EVDO will give you connection speeds of 350-750k. its pretty nice.
if you want to learn more about that phone or any other pocket pc phone, here is a great board (direct link to the vx6600 board)

You can install programs on the Blackberry, I recommend that you go with the Nextel Blackberry solution, you can buy SSH programs for the Nextel Blackberry and because of Nextel's TCP/IP stack, you won't need to use the Blackberry Enterprise Server to SSH out as you would with other Blackberry phone systems (T-Mobile, Verizon)

Idokorro Mobile SSH :thumbsup
