Can't get this to work on the E70 at the moment, read somewhere that this may not even be possible on this device, do you know if this is true?
Thanks for your help.

the SK65 was the full version of the BB sw stack running in sw on the device ('blackberry built-in' as it was originally marketed), however the E70 only supports 'connect' which is a 'lite' implementation of the BB device. With the E70 when you browse the internet then you will just go out via the handsets regular internet connection, rather than as you would with a BB, effectively 'go out' via the proxy server on your network...therefore a URL of
www.intranet.mycompany.com won't work as to all intesive purposes the E70 is not behind the firewall in the same way that full BB is.
Options.
1) Tough
2) Some kind of VPN solution (if clients available for e70)
3) Dump the e70s and go with regular BB devices..
4) Go back to the sk65 paperweights (no this isn't an option)
Yet another reason why BB connect suxxs when trying to use in a business environment.. for more see
