PCS Mail Decommission

[MarkMoore]

I have a requirement for SMS messages to be longer than they currently are, so I started poking aroun on Sprints site and found that they are decommmissioning Sprint Mail effective 12/31/08. This SITE say you can download the new Sprint Mobile Mail, but the PPC6700 is not considered compatible (surprise - the Mogul (6800) is).

I tried it and sent the test message as the site says and got a reply with a link - I clicked the link (http://gospv.com/email), but got a message saying that the premium content was not available for my device. BTW, tried accessing that site using WiFi and it could not resolve - tried again using EVDO and was redirected to a manage.sprintpcs.com-blah,blah,blah (long string)

So my question is - is there a mail product that exists for 'real time' email greater than the SMS lessage length?
I'm running WM 6.1 and checked the registry under the IE settings confirming that IE reports PPC6800.
