Okay, I broke down & bought one a couple of weeks ago (after I decided that MSFT would never figure out push e-mail for Pocket PC).
Excellent device!
But now I'm carrying around three trinkets -- the BB, the Pocket PC and the SEM T610. If the BB did Bluetooth and could support the modem profile from my computer and the headset profile from my car, I would consider leaving the T610 at home.
Anyway, just a wish from my wishlist.
BTW, the card games from Magmic are pretty good.

In my case, the only reason I used my old PPC was web browsing via a cell phone and contact management. The BB replaced both those.

I take notes on it - I'm completely paperless.
It does GPS door-to-door navigation.
I have copies of all of my important documents on it.
I read e-books.
I use MSFT Office applications.
And lots more. For short trips, I can even live with only the Pocket PC and the phone. Even though I entered this reply on a Blackberry, I have plenty of Pocket PC applications

Okay, here's what happens. I get the post screen, fill it in, hit Submit, and then I just get a blank screen. Nothing happens after that, even if I hit Refresh, and when I go back to the page it hasn't posted.

yes, Nick., I believe that is how my setup is configured as I do not have BES.

You need to do the "RBRO" trick, go to the options screen in your browser, then type RBRO, that will unlock the settings, now got to the general settings, you'll see a browsing mode in the bottom, probably set to "constrained", change that to "unconstrained"... Check rimroad for more on changing the browser from pure WML to WML/HTML.
