Here is a link to the product.
I just want to know your guys opinions on this product, its for a marketing class that I am taking. My group wanted to use this gadget for our group project.
Well, so far, it is hot in Japan and Europe, what do you guys think of it.?Would you guys buy one?
 
At my work we use GoodLink, which is the same thing, pretty much. Works great as a wireless Outlook client. (However, I'd like the same functionality built into my phone, coupled with good signal reception.)
 
we use them here at work, for everyone who has a company cellphone.

I've never been impressed with them. Most all-in-one devices that I've run into are mediocre at everything, but great at nothing.

In our case, our top needs are cellphone service and instant messaging service. I'm not really impressed with Blackberry as a cellphone. The instant messaging is nice, but cellphone communications > IM's.
 
I bought one back in 2000 when I was in Canada. it was pretty cool but grossly overpriced so I quickly returned it. For me I'm more interested in increasing the functionality of a cellphone than carrying around a huge pda thing. I'd rather lose functionality than carry a big one around. BTW the bberry I had was the small one the size of a pager. It was sweet for emailing.
 
I have one through work, it's one of the greatest inventions ever. I've also set up dozens of BES's and Blackberrys for clients. Other PDAs can't hold a candle to it for business functionality.

Oh, they're not as useful if you don't have a BES.

The 6230/7230 (TMobile) are what we use in our office, the size isn't so bad. The new 7700 series is too big, IMO.
 
"I'd rather lose functionality than carry a big one around"

Mrs. Skoorb says you have both of those issues covered. 😛
 
They are suppose to start testing these at my work, for E-mail only though. That seems like a waste, but it's only going to be for the high up people.

It still is. My company and all our clients stay in contact this way. Either e-mail or the Nextel direct connect.
 
It's the best solution for the enterprise, that's it.

I really wish the Treo's would get cheaper.
