Treos with PalmOS have a similar application which basically scans incoming text messages for keywords and then triggers system events depending on your configuration (ie perform a Send/Receive within the email client) - decent "push" email without the push email hit on battery life.

Ahhh, so that's how it works. I really like that method, since it doesn't keep the data connection on. Anyone know any other providers that are free and use this method? I'd really like to have HTML email and on multiple accounts.
