I forget to mention that my wife uses a Treo with Sprint service and Treo's push email. It runs on her machine at home, not connected to a server. The push is reliable. Of course, she has to put up with Sprint. She likes it enough that she's talking about upgrading to the new Treo when it's released this year. I hope Amazon provides a good deal as they did with her 300.
She can even surf the web with the thing.
As for the Sidekick, a friend of my daughter has one. I stoled it from her for a spin. It's a neat device, but T Mobile probably made a mistake when they promoted it as a kid's toy. I can't imagine anyone in a business meeting pulling one out.
