Default Not sure what to do - 12-09-2007, 07:49 PM

I currently have the Treo 700wx, running off a server with Exchange 2003. I am totally windows dependant as well as my company. I would love to switch (verizon customer) to the 8830 but need all the services of outlook as well as 2 other email services( yahoo, & Msn). I run a small company whick i know will not purchase a BES server. I am so tired of the Treo and having to reboot it just to get it to work. I know little or nothing about BB but what i have read here. The stability would be great but I can't live without my sync with my server. I do travel mostly in the US(by car) and use a laptop. the Treo allows me (when working) to sync (calendar, contacts, and e-mail) over the air which is the only thing that i love about it. Does anyone have any kind of solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think you should stick with your Treo and Windows solution.
BlackBerry will not give you what you want unless you're running BES with your Exchange server.

Is it just you who will be using the BlackBerry? You can get a 1 user license for BES for free. (BES Express)

Do a Google search or visit Blackberry.com and look up BES Express.
It's a free version of BES, for one user only.
