Is there anyway to enable the email option on an at&t branded C905a without debranding?

just debrand it

I did and it works great, however I work for at&t and it would be nice to be able to demo a lot of the features that come with the at&t firmware.

Trust me, you're only missing a load of features with the at&t firmware. Just debrand, and get WiFi and GPS unlocked.

I don't think the e-mail client is even in the firmware so there is no way you can enable it.

Yeap carrier-branded firmware sucks ball on SE phones. Unbranded SE TM506 (T-Mobile branded Z780) is a joy to use comparing to the T-Mobile branded one. Email (POP/IMAP), Exchange, SyncML, GPS-unlocked, and etc work great.

GPS doesn't appear to work with external programs. ie; Google Maps. It only works with programs that are built in. I have tried this on Branded and Un-Branded software.

Have you tried AmazeGPS yet? At least for the SE TM506, both Google Maps and AmazeGPS work with the built-in GPS.
