Sony X1 and BIS

[Sparky_za]

Hey guys

I've read a few threads around the BIS service on the X1, but would like your input.

Currently I have a 2GB data bundle on my Anytime 350 package. I usually use about 1.5GB surfing from my phone, and occasionally from the laptop. Applications I use are Palringo (IM), Opera, all the little widgets on the X1 (weather, Facebook, Time Sync etc), and most importantly ActiveSync for my corporate email.

So two questions, if using BIS would I have to change my current email setup, and would it be worth it for me to change to BIS and cancel the current 2GB package?

BIS on non Blackberry phones ONLY gives you free email but NOT free internet browsing.

Probably not, I believe you can obly use BIS for e-mail on Windows mobile (I could be wrong though)

Aahh... well that most definitely changes things. I'll try and dig a little deeper and see what the difference is.

Thanks for the response guys.

Link from XDA seems to confirm this. Real pity the browser doesn't work...

My old Nokia E70 could use BIS with email 2 years ago.
