As this is for SBS2003 and "someday" 2007 so you can probably include intranet browsing - at least for now.

Read some of my posts in the archives about Windows Mobile in a thread titled SmartPhones... To sum it up, if you go Windows Mobile, look for devices that are version 6.1 I would recommend BB or a product called Good Messaging (Runs on most all phone platforms). Both are set and forget. Both also have hosted services, if you don't feel like running another server. But, like John said, the hardware requirements are minimal. FYI, the costs for the license and support of Good Messaging for our business is a couple bucks a month per cell phone line. -----Original Message----- From: John Cook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008 3:11 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Blackberries or Windows CE phones It really depends on several factors - how many users? Firewall configuration? Actual need - just incredible e-mail or do you actually need all of the other bells and whistles? Yes BES costs a little and requires a server but once its set up you can basically forget about it until you need to add another user or something of that nature. I consider the BB far superior when it comes to providing e-mail for ID10Ts on the road. I have it installed on an 8 yr old repurposed Dell workstation with no issues. YMMV John W.

Blackberry does, in fact, require another server.

We are planning to migrate to Exchange 2007, however, I don't have a timeline for that migration yet. In the meantime, I've been asked about phones and the costs for making them to work with our current Exchange server. My assumption is that Blackberries require a Blackberry server and apart of the cost, could be a headache. My guess is that Windows CE is probably better suited to work together with Exchange. Do We need something special to make it to run? Any other recommendations? I want as less headaches as possible :) Thanks, Miguel ______________________________________________ Enviado desde Correo Yahoo!
