I agree with GadgetDave. If you are giving an executive a messaging device and want to keep your job, give them a BB. I have a Sprint 6700 and its frustrating. First, there's the Dark Screen of Death where keeping the miniSD card in your device for any length of time causes it to freeze up (blocking all calls and mail) until you remove and reinsert the card again. Another issue is where the device will just lose network connectivity. It looks like you are connected - until you try to use it. And of course if you can't get out, then you also can't get in - i.e., no messaging pushes. A soft reset is the only way to fix it. Also, Sprint's Biz Connect server sometimes just stops pushing email. You have to manually get your mail before it kickstarts it. Bottom line is, at least once a day I have to attend to the messaging piece of the system somehow - either a soft reset or a manual email pull.
All in all, messaging on the 6700 is frustrating. If you don't mind the secuirty issues of going through BB (or if you have your own BB servers), then BB just plain works. I'm not interested in a BB perosnally because I like having just one device and I use my PPC for so many other things. But BB is the way to go if messaging is hella-important.
