My primary means of communication is through sms,e-mail and calls. This is applicable to a majority of us, we'd rather sms,e-mail and lastly resort to calls if we need instantaneous response. I can easily do sms and calls on my mobile phone but usually have to be near my Macbook or any PC terminal at the office or at home to check email. Even though we can check our emails nowadays on our mobile phone it's not as user friendly as sms. You can configure your phone to check your inbox at set intervals from every 5 mins or every hour and pulls e-mails from your inbox into your phone and notify you just like a new sms. Don't we wish we can get our emails straight to our mobile phone as soon as it arrives in our inbox without us checking, like a BlackBerry. Well now we can if you are using a Windows smart phone and subscribe to any of the paid or free push email providers. I have tried mobipush.com whereby I have configured it push email from my Google inbox. Caveat emptor, you have to pay for data every time you get an email push to you, hey nothing is free nowadays. What you have to do is find a data plan that works out to be rates that would be similar to an outgoing sms. So if you have lots of emails and wishes to respond to them on your mobile as well,I'd suggest you go for the data unlimited plan. After trying mobipush I find it to be unreliable, sometimes emails don't get push to my mobile so I switch to mail2web LIVE. the difference is that you have to to subscribe to a new webmail and configure your other emails to forward to this mail2web address. As soon as it goes into your inbox it will push it to your mobile,so far it has been reliable,I get emails faster than my inbox and best of all it's free. It's great because all my mode of communication can be on 1 single mobile device. There a few things lacking because I don't use active sync, MS outlook and I am using a Macbook so I cannot sync my calendar and contacts. Well The iPhone 3G do have similar offerings and that could be ny next Gadjet!
