Default Advice for a good HTML e-mail viewer

Does anybody know a good software to view e-mails in HTML? I hate reading plain text stuff and looked for some software, and there appear to be quite a few. Has anyone tried any of these apps and if so, which is the best? Sorry if there is already a post on this, I looked but couldn't find anything. Thanks!

+1 for empower.

Also, my boss tried the bbsmart one a few months ago and didn't like it. i talked him into trying out empower yesterday and he's a big fan so far.

I tired both empower and BBSmart, you can get a free trial with both to see what one you like better. For me it was empower, and I hated using the BBSmart.

There is no icon for EmPower. when you open an email, it will automatically
switch to HTML view.

Also, there is an EmPower options (from messages . press menu and scroll up)
where you can make adjustments.

i know that there are BBsmart and empower, what about JUST HTML to read on your BB, nothing else? I though I saw an app for that on shopcrackberry for $10 but I just looked and can't find any. I think that might be reasonably priced, if thats all you get.

ok never mind i found it, its just the basic version of empower.... Whats the difference? anyone have the simple one, then upgrade to the pro?

Oh good, I'd hate to be the only one.......It doesn't SAY that you have to register it--I bought it, I downloaded it--they were more than happy to take my money--why doesn't this thing WORK??????

Did you do an OTA installation through your bb browser? I believe if done that way it will install the software and like mentioned earlier it is already running so when you open an email that is the product that will do it for you. I currently have the free version on mine for pro but I think its ok. I mean I can get the full HTML format through operamini but with this empower app not all emails are showing all that well. I'm wondering if its just because I have the free trial version. Are those the only two that are out on the market right now that are worth having?

HTML Emails will be native to blackberry phones soon, well soon as you upgrade to OS4.5 and your service providers upgrade their servers. Why pay, when you can have it for free ?

Empower is my choice...I bought the pro version earlier this year but with 4.5 and RIM's upgrade of the BIS this weekend HTML will be native very, very soon!

Throw our hands up in the air and say Wooohooo!!!!
