This is the message I received earlier today from a Support Supervisor at
Cingular. I know this gentlemen is mistaken but maybe not. Can someone at MS
contact me to get the particulars so it can be passed on to a
program/product manager for Mobile5?

"Currently none of our e-mail solutions support Small Business Server for
direct message push to the devices; so no matter which device model you get
from us, the solution will not work"

Exchange server has push email options... I'll let others fill in the
details since I don't use it, but you can effectively do the same by
setting your pop3 account to check email on a regular interval.

In addition, SMS (text messaging) is "push" and you can receive two line
plain text messages from any email sender if they address it to your
phone number (numbers only) @CingularME.com for example

1234567890@CingularME.com

Cingular's email solutions may not work, however, they shouldn't enter into
it; syncing with an Exchange Server is between Windows Mobile ActiveSync and
the Exchange Server. I have an Alltel PPC6700 (WM5) and Exchange Server
"push" works just fine; I must comment that I don't use the push feature
because it has a dramatic effect on battery life, I have ActiveSync set to
check every half hour.
