Clarification on BES/BIS vs. iPhone E-Mail
I have knowledge of what each does, but not through knowledge, so if anyone can help clear things up, I would appreciate it.
I understand BES and BIS how they work, my concern is more related to the time a BlackBerry retrieves it's e-mail.
I know that with BES, e-mail is received almost (if not) instantaneous? And with BIS there is a delay, maybe 10-15 min? My question is, for people who have the iPhone that use their e-mail function, they can setup their e-mail but will only check/retrieve e-mail every 15 min. or so for new messages, how does this differ from using BIS? (BES you get messages, immediately so it's not really a factor). I don't care what both phones are capable of, I'm just concerned with how the e-mail is being taking care of. Assuming I got my facts straight, if you have a BlackBerry, how do you argue with someone with an iPhone about how e-mail is handled if both are handled ALMOST the same way?
