It is very shocking!
The P1, W960, G800 etc all support BB but none of them Have HSDPA!!
Is it that hard to just make a phone that supports both?

SE also dont have a Symbian phone with HSDPA.
Is there a reason why? It cant take so long for them to have a decent phone, I expect these features to be standard by now.

Looks like I have to go for a BB or a Nokia now
They dont want me to use MS exchange ...

E71 here I come.......

Get an E71. Its close to perfection that a business phone gets. And in future, dont expect anything from SE.

But doesnt support Blackberry. Nokia have dropped Blackberry support on their latest E- Series.

you don't need to rely on blackberry for push email.

Other providers offer push email on standard handsets such as W910, K850. (though no qwerty keyboard of course)

Look out ofr X1 - looks like WM will fill SE smartphone shoes for the time being. UIQ will not be developed any further.

Yup. I'm looking to replace my now out of contract P990, and there isn't a phone on the market with all it's features, that isn't a Crackberry or runs Windows (thus ruling it out).
Still, the GPhone (the HTC sliding keyboard hardware version) is due out in a few months, right ?

Exactly, it's like I've been on a crusade to have HSDPA on SE smartphones since forever! Miles Flynt is an idiot and let's hope Mr Komiyama can clean up his mess.

@max wedge
Yes, we can have other push mail clients but Blackberry happens to be one of the most established and well-known clients to date, so shame on SE for not accomodating to a significant majority. It's truly their loss.

No way!? Serious? Im sure there has to be a way to get it on!! Please say there is....

The other SE phones with "push" email still dont support BB, I need one that works on the companies BES server.

I dont want a BB phone, just a decent phone that supports the client. Does the E66 support BB?

Im using the HTC Touch Diamond, Love it to bits, dont want to let it go lol, but need BB now... Or just foot the bill for MS Exchange...

Anyone know if the SE will launch a X1 without the keyboard? Like a HTC Touch Diamond killer? Or is that another topic?

Blackberry connect is available for windows mobile. Blackberry site doesnt list the diamond but does list the touch and TYTN 2 so I am sure that it would work on a diamond.
