I am current VZW customer in the US and am looking for specific
instructions and validated success of using a PDA/Smartphone with MS
operatiing system and BlackBerry Connect software.  I realize that
this configuration is not currently supported by VZW, but understand
that it is possible.

My company supports a Blackberry Enterprise server and I will
subscribe to a VZW blackberry data plan.  I need to know how to obtain
the BBC software for any specified PDA/Smartphone, How to load the
software, how to obtain necessary Blackberry PIN, etc to have the
device recognized by VZW.

I am also willing to switch to T-mobile as a cellular carrier if necessary.

many Thanx if ya can help out.
Cheers, 
Tom

Hi, 
I currently have a samsung i600, but will replace it with a new
Microsoft based PDA if it provides blackberry connect fundtionality. 
(My company only supports blackberry for corporate e-mail).  PDA needs
to be MS based operating system.

Thanx and hope you can help.
Tom

Hello pakdog,

It seems that you would only be able to do this with Cingular.
T-Mobile has Blackberry Connect functionality but only in the UK with
a PDA and in America with a simple clamshell phone.  Verizon says that
they will get the capability but right now it's only supported on GSM
services like Cingular and T-Mobile.  If you want further information
about Cingular and connecting with a PDA with Cingular service to
Blackberry Connect, I'd be glad to help you with that.
