unfortunately push email kills battery life as it requires a constant data connection. some email programs can be set to poll the server every 15/30mins or hourly which helps battery consumption greatly.
the three email solution is contantly on with no option to set it to pick up emails every hour or so.
@pinkllama you say that having the constant data connection active is a bad thing, maybe but i use windows mobile and when i ran an exchange service, which i guess is what this will use or something very similar i had improved battery life over checking my emails over imap accounts set at 15 minute intervals.
This is because the data connection may be active but the actual transfer of data is what uses battery and push email services use alot lot less mb when active therefore use less power to run. If i could find a good free exchange service that went across phones/desktop i would use it but so far only a solution of once can be found.
Evidently this addition to their service will be welcomed by many, I am happy for all.
T.Mobile could also make me happy by getting back to some basics, for the last month the voicemail has been dreadful, constant "unable to connect to this service" audio messages when trying to retrieve voice messages, something like 70% of the attempts failing.
I wonder if telcos are biting off more than they can really chew and they then get crashed network services.
