The linked article listed by another poster included BB Connect for the 700W. It specefically showed it working on the device.

The device's current "push" email doesn't work for crap at the moment. It isn't really "push", you have to set it up to go get mail every so many minutes. There's nothing automatic about it and it still takes forever to recieve a sent email.

That would be great! I'm no expert at this issue, and I know BB Connect is coming out soon for the Treo 650 (Palm OS), but didn't think we would see it for the 700w. I hope I'm wrong.

No argument there. I love the 700w, except for its e-mail limitations. I had one for about a week before giving up on it because of bad e-mail functionality. If BB Connect is made available for the 700w, I would strongly consider switching back.

I went from a Blackberry 7100i to a PPC-6700 and am pretty happy with the switch, the regular email app does suck. So I went ahead and got on a hosted exchange at 4smartphone.com, with that email is MUCH better. But I will say that Pocket MSN sucks so much, I cant even begin to say how much it truely sucks.
