    System Seven on bberry

    Has anyone ever used System Seven on a blackberry? I have used it on S60 and WinMo. I know it may sound kind of stupid since a blackberry is supposed to kill all with email but for people with BIS, you can do real push e-mail (not imap or pop) through system seven and it is free. It will even sync contacts for you. It also has the ability to sync to an OWA account if you login to one with work and it works quite well without your IT department even getting involved.


    EDIT: Looks like I am stupid and you cant use seven on a berry. I just read on crackberry though that you can sync OWA with BIS... Is this true?

    It works, but it is not instant. The delay will range from 2-15 minutes from when the email hits your actual inbox and when it gets to your BB. I find it to be a great alternative to BES.

    BIS doesn't sync anything. It merely retrieves mail and pushes it to the BB. Yes, you can integrate email via OWA with BIS.

    Why would you want to install that junk on your Berry? It's the best solution for an s60 phone, but the whole point of a Berry is not to do any rain dances to get email quickly and efficiently.
