You can also install it on an xp machine. Might not find it anywhere
in the documentation, but it does work just the same. If you do, I
would recommend dedicating the xp machine to doing just the BES.

Yes, but even Blackberry doesn't support that! I don't recommend it either.

If people want BES, they should do it right. If they want Blackberries, they
need a properly configured BES (and this includes annual support on same).
And if they just want wireless mail/syncing & don't want to spend the extra
$, then they get Windows Mobile.

I'm mean. But my networks are very stable.

Personally I like the Blackberry and Blackberry Enterprise Server.
You can run this on a SBS server.
The BES is free for one user, then $99 for each additional - up to
15 users - actually it looks like they just changed it to 30.
Here is a link to the free BES for one user:

You *can* install it on SBS. I just don't recommend it, and nor do
most Exchange folk - BES shouldn't be on the same box running
Exchange.
