Hi Ara,
 
The reason the expensive ones are expensive is because MS pre-populates
the trusted CA list for those certs. The cheap ones are no better than
ones you fry up yourself.
 
HTH,

        That is what I thought. I bought a godaddy version and didn't
work with palm but geotrust worked instantly :-)

                Greetings everyone,

                 

                I am in process of buying a certificate and was
wondering why godaddy certs are much cheaper (90%) compared to Verisign
and geoturst. Something is not right :-( has anyone had experience with
their certificates? Does it give you the annoying warning like personal
certificates? Is it compatible with mobile devices doing active sync
over https? 

                Appreciated
