    I typically use Outlook, but now that I have a BlackBerry I am considering not even bothering unless I have something long or complex to send out. My Outlook checks my email once a minute but it comes through faster on my BB anyway. Has anyone here ditched the computer for email as much as possible?

    I will never rely only on my BB. I use my home mail when I am home for the most part. Everywhere else its on the berry.

    Home is just easier for me. I do alot of emailing.

    When I'm out of town I like my BB - it's nice not to have to carry along my laptop when I'm away from home.

    I only use my berry to see what emails I get. Just skim the titles and delete all prior messasages when done.

    If I am at home or in my office, my first choice is the PC. If I am
    on the road then BB.

    Can't use the BB at work, which is where I deal with most e-mail so no, the BB won't replace the PC for me there. I do all my gmail organizing on my computer, too; doing all that folder assigning and archiving on the BB would be too tedious. I do most of my quality BB time as I am right now: sitting up in bed, instead of going to sleep.

    Slacker!

    I use both my BB and computer. I prefer posting on CB via computer than BB for some reason. I always have this moment where I say I am going to post on WAP all day. However, like right now, I am back to posting via computer. Oh well.

    Blackberry = 75%

    This is my first berry and I often wonder what took so long!

    I generally only do emails once or twice a day on my computer. Otherwise I mostly just use my blackberry for that.

    Due to some of the mailing lists I belong to (many of them for years), it would be impossible to use my berry 100% for email. Also the berry won't handle many of the attachments that come with some emails.

    And I won't be forwarding any of the throw away email accounts that I use to sign up for things on the web, but I do setup forward filters for those important things.

    Amen. I have multiple filters in place on my gmail account precisely to prevent that stuff from making it onto my BB. Forum notifications from this place are about the only "procedural" e-mails that I let come on in, and that's only because this place is so much fun.

    I just use my BlackBerry...I don't have time to sit at a computer to email...and when I'm on the computer I'm wasting time doing other stuff. The whole reason I got a Berry is to NOT sit at a computer to type haha

    I've been using my berry for pretty much everything as well. I have a regular gmail account so the emails come faster on it than on my computer anyway. The only time I really use the email client on my computer is when I happen to have it open.
