Re: [Skunkworks] Nokia Push email vs Blackberry
Hmm, I thought we were through this already. Push email was exclusive to blackberry so Nokia came up with their own version to rival RIM's. Here is someone who had the time to run pseudo tests for you and his supposed results as well. http://www.mobile-users.net/2009/12/09/blackberry-vs-nokia-the- email-battle/ Personally ill stick with my blackberry push email, and just as an fyi, you can disable BIS though that defeats the purpose of the device. Again, all boils down to personal preferences. Sent From my Blackberry vs Nokia Device®. _tyrus
You are actually right. Atleast if you are using a nokia device its ponitless to have to pay for the blackberry service. In the newer e series nokai have discontinued support for blackberry connect, since they argue that they have mail for exchange rivalling blackberry service. Like on my old nokia i could not send pictures with the blackberry service or any attachment for that matter. The new mfe does that and also allows me to view all subfolders in my mailbox..... Blackberry service only makes sence if you got a blackberry phone. -----Original Message----- From: Mash Sent: 27/04/2010, 13:36 To: Skunkworks forum Subject: [Skunkworks] Nokia Push email vs Blackberry
This may sound blonde, but someone help me understand the difference between the Nokia email service and the blackberry service. According to me, one is free while the other, I part with 2k monthly!!!
IMHO, Depends on the use of the device.I know of people who use Nokia's for voice calls and Blackberry for data.I think its much more of what you prefer. On 27/04/2010, fyodor <fyodor@hushmail.com> wrote:

Tyrus, your answer jana was not very satisfactory. I'm the mean type and believe in doing away with unnecessary costs like the blackberry fee.

None of them are free. For the nokia, you will still pay for data downloaded/uploaded...while for blackberyy you will pay a flat rate rate for the same data uploaded/downloaded........... On Tue, Apr 27, 2010 at 5:47 PM, Mash <kihahu@gmail.com> wrote:

Main difference is battery life of device. Blackberry has longer battery life than Nokia - for the same amount of data transferred in same duration. . This is important as am sure you don't want to carry additional batteries or a charger on standby since you also have to contend with talk time on your device.
