Not 100% positive on this, but here's what I think I know about the browser issue.

If you use the BB browser (BES), you're essentially able to get to the company websites as if you were on a laptop in the office. BUT, if I use the BB browser, with my companies rules, I can't get to gmail or hotmail, just like I couldn't get to them if I were on a laptop in the office.

So, I set my default browser to Internet (not BES) so I can get to all kinds of sites, and for the limited times I want a company web site, I set it up for the BB browser
