It depends on user preference... I should not have said it was "better" because obviously there will be others that disagree... I am just saying what I prefer... if you like the other - rock on!

Sure it is user perefernce. I use only Yahoo email from the web based ones. and I use 3 IMAP account for work and school. ALL the IMAP emails do not sync with blackberry and you can imagine the pain... I used to have HTC that worked flawlessly with the IMAP two way sync. and I tried the iphone and it worked well, too.
