I find on the BB mail arrives much quicker on a regular basis than on my winmo, webos and iphones. The real clincher for me is the battery life. On the above mentioned phones frequent email checks have a drastic effect on battery life. I never finish a work day with less than 50-60% on the BB. It's used constantly on a work day with as many as as 200 emails. I also constantly add appointments, etc to the calendar and sync thru out the day. That's my two cents worth. Just wish there was a good task killer for BB. I'm too programed from all those years of winmo lol. I hate back stroking on the BB. I have unlimited everything so there is no $10.00 charge above the $99.00 everything.
