My experience with the Blackberry was very poor.

No active sync, required BES or a third party add on (which we don't have here at work.) My add on was astrasync, which costs 50 dollars a year.

Mobile Web was very slow, required to travel through RIM's server farm to reach the net.

Mobile Data would often drop, then require me to reboot the phone to reconnect. Sometimes it would recover but usually not.

Lack of applications other than what RIM offers.

Somewhat poor design for inboxes and menus.

I returned the phone after a week and returned to Windows Mobile. I think that I like the candy bar phones more than the slider, and am considering the HTC Snap for my next phone.

Windows Mobile is where it's at. Look at the huge variety of apps we have, plus hacks to do whatever you want, and active sync is a breeze to work with.
