Khan, I keep hearing that the RIMM services are a "killer app" and that the device is incredibly useful. Thanks again for your thoughtful reply. IMHO, one of the biggest faults of the Pocket PC devices has been the lack of a pager module (complementing the CF+ line) that would allow similar applications as offered by RIMM. I know that Motorola developed a CF+ pager module, but I believe it is only one way and it has never been terribly well promoted. I still can't comprehend the awesome battery life of the RIMM given its two-way functionality. No antenna, a full "micro" key board, two-way paging/e-mail and unbelievable battery stamina all in one little package. Plus it's a chick magnet. Aus
