Its almost like RIM feels they are in a league of their own. I rolled out BPS to a Judge who wanted to be like her coworker Judges with BES or ActiveSync access only to disappoint her with text.

This is exactly what I have been thinking, your reply included jeff.
I recently traded in my Storm 2 for the android. It broke my heart. As a phone...I LOVE the android, but as functionality, its a change. It works very well with exchange, but not quite as smooth as iPhone or WinMo (I tried all the Verizon Winmo phones and did not like any...the HTC Imagio has no portrait view...wtf!!!)
I am not having to get used to a new phone, but guess what...ITS FREE...no extra money to spend.
I have a client with a BES and outside of the rediculous descriptions and repetitoin of Policies, I love it. But I do not have thousands of dollars to spend on another server and software. Plus BES does not even work with Exchange 2010 yet...I am using it since I need to get familiar with the newest and best...all I have to say is RIM, watch out....Google and MS are taking advantage of your "slackness"....they are coming out with better competition every day.
