Agreed. Although I'm still a fan of Microsoft ActiveSync for seamless exchange connectivity, the BES is pretty nice. As a matter of fact I think AIS has a production BES available.

Is it better to run Exchange and get the Blackberry Enterprise Server? Can I set the Blackberry up with IMAP and use the MSU mail server instead?
