Cumbersome.
The limitation is not the BB Connect service. Windows Mobile can't seem to handle more than one internet connection at a time. Thus, if the BB Connect software can't share its connection, the device cannot use the net for anything else without disabling that first.
Since you already have the Tilt I suggest sticking to MS Direct Push. Yeah, you will be limited to only one push email account, but it will not interfere with other uses of the device. If you were still about to buy a device, I would suggest looking carefully at the Nokia E61i, E90, and an actual Blackberry (8300 series or 8800 series).

I actually just dumped the 8300. I needed something that was more than just business. I am liking it so far. Thanks for all the info.
