For the push feature to work you need two things.
A. a WM5 device so you'll wither have to upgrade from 2003SE (not many
suppliers are providing an upgrade path) or else by a new device.
B. an exchange 2003 server running the latest SP2 (recently released) That
is something only you IT people can do but they may be doing it anyway as it
contains more than just this new feature.
I recently read a post at modaco where someone was suggesting his clients
switch from blackberry to WM. Apparently if you have alot of blackberry
clients you'll need some serious hardware to run blackberry server ?
