Mark, I currently have a Sony T-610 which I use as a GPRS Bluetooth modem for my IPAQ 1945 and Toshiba Laptop with D-Link Bluetooth adapter. I am considering upgrading to the Blackberry 7100t or the 7230 with T-Mobile in Atlanta. I currently have the ability to forward my emails because I use Fastmail.fm to collect all my emails. I use their wonderful webmail interface, and can even use it quite well on the PPC. I just really miss my keyboard like I use to have on my old Treo 90. They have a forwarding service in their "rules" options to send the complete message, summary, etc. Right now I send a summary email, as a text message to my tmomail.net address on my phone. This let's me know within seconds if I have an email. I receive faxes online and am notified the same way. I am concerned however, about losing the full "HTML" web experience I now have by switching to Blackberry. I believe there are at least 2 options for me to consider. 1) Use the Blackberry Web Client to manage my emails, (My company will not be running BES anytime soon) and hope the full internet portal is open to surf the web with the ReqWireless WebViewer. 2) Keep my GPRS Internet with T-Mobile and forward my emails to an address on the phone. This will enable "Full" intenet, but I'm not sure if the Blackberry will be able to configure the email client correctly. I would like to keep the T-610 to use as a modem for my laptop this way. Thanks for posting this thread. I hope you can enable more users of the ubiquitous Blackberry.
