[Asterisk-Users] Blackberry SIM card

How different it is over there I don't know)

The Blackberry devices are no different from any other GSM cellphone, so you
can get a SIM card from anyone, not specifically T-Mobile (provided your
device hasn't been locked to a network in the first place, and if it has,
there are plenty of market traders who'll unlock the thing for a few
pounds).

> BES server, Married with Exchange server or Lotus notes.

The Blackberry will also work fine with standard IMAP/POP3/SMTP servers, so
you aren't tied to an email address they provide in any way/shape/form.

I must point out I've no experience using the SIP side of the device at all.
I might try and steal one off a client in the new year and have a play with
it - I'd no idea it supported SIP at all.
