I have heard about carrier's planning to offer this feature. But have not seen it happen. I would love to have this standard on my Smartphone.

When Pocket PCs were launched, Microsoft had an edge in this topic. But over the years Microsoft has not done much to improve the viewers and left it to the third party vendors. And on the Smartphone its all third party.

I guess the reason why I don't carry the BB is because I don't need always on e-mail. I need a phone, that looks like a phone, feels like a phone and works like a phone. And can do lots of cool stuff. ;-)
