Hi all
I am after some suggestions and advice here.
I run my own small business and am on the move a fair bit. I am usually at a computer for most of the day but this is now changing with me on the move alot more. I currently have a HP HW6915 (windows mobile) with loads of features I dont use. The one feature i do use is a royal pain in the backside. email.
This is where a blackberry may be the answer to my problems.
I have 3 emails accounts I use throughout the day and currently access them via the IMAP protocol but my current network and phone device just doesnt work very well (reconfigure the proxy settings disable wireless etc and often something goes wrong so I have to fix it).
All I need is a device where I can make and take phone calls and manage my emails over gprs/3g etc etc. I dont need a camera, gps or any fancy programs.
I am just wondering if the blackberry works with the IMAP protocol ? I am not after push email really, as long as I can schedule a sync or check with the IMAP server. Although I may look at push email in the future.
If the blackberry works with IMAP how well does it work? would it suit my needs?
Are there any other solutions which might suit my needs?
I was looking at BlackBerry 8700v™ on Vodafone in the UK.
Thanks for your time
