Now may be a decent time to consider switching from two apps to one (BB +
ItrezzoAgent =>>WinCE devices).  
If history is any guide though, prying a BB from a user is next to
impossible.  They love 'em regardless of what happens which is why I refer
to them as a 'crack' berry; users are addicted to them even if it's easier
or more sane to do it another way.  

One approach I've seen is to offer both with levels of service depending on
the platform chosen.  For instance, the BB may have messages etc, but the CE
device may offer attachments.  If you choose the BB, you choose not to have
full fidelity with attachments.  Etc.

Just a few thoughts.  Good luck.

Al

Thanks again Al!

We have an older version blackberry (not sure at the moment which version).
We also purchased the ItrezzoAgent which they were never able to get to work
with our current setup (NT4., Exchange 5.5).

Reading attachments is dependent on you having the program to read them
with.  I.E. if it's a word doc, you need a word program (viewer or
other) to read it.  

CE devices usually have such applications loaded making it pretty easy
to read attachments with.  I wouldn't want huge attachments that way due
to screen size and keyboard sizes, but it's available. 

I prefer a CE device to a crackberry, but only because of the
architecture it requires.  OMA is built in, albeit with a little less
functionality. Keep in mind, I'm not fancy when it comes to mobile
access, so some of the advanced berry features do nothing for me.

Does anyone know which is better?  The Itrezzo agent for Blackberry or
Outlook Mobile Access?  Can you read attachments with OMA or do you
still need Itrezzo.

Thanks.

Looks nice.  How does Blackberry compare with OMA (Outlook Mobile
Access)? Anyone have any comments?

best regards
