Do you have the blackberry software to go with your exchange server?  I was 
under the impression you can't just use this thing without the server end 
being sorted out too.

Hmm, everyone I've seen using them seems to manage ok.  I don't think they 
are meant to replace laptops, they are just for reading email and sending 
short replies when you can't get access to WiFi or don't want to use your 
laptop.  Actually in a couple of situations I'd wished I had a similar 
device, would have saved a lot of time and money.
