Currently only the new Blackberries offer always on AND tri-band service. Even the new color Sidekick is only GSM1900.

However, receiving always-on Blackberry email isn't very reliable on foreign networks and GPRS roaming charges are very high.</font>
Another timely post in a very timely thread at a time when a fool (yes, I am that fool) and his money are about to be parted yet again.....

Are the reliability issues you've seen when roaming with Blackberry related to the reliability of GPRS when roaming or the Blackberry software itself? Also, do the reliability issues involve delays or a simple failure to deliver that important message at all?

Thanks in advance and regards,
