To those of you using Direct Push...

Can anyone using Direct Push please confirm or deny that you experience lockups whenever you turn on WiFi at the same time? I am really scratching my head over this one.

Can't confirm: I've tried this at MEDC because phone coverage sux in places.

However, when GPRS is available and direct push kicks in, my connection gets downgraded to GPRS speed even though I have the WiFi tower displayed.

My solution has been to stop Direct Push and Phone in Conn Mgr and then enable WiFi. I then manually sync email periodically using send/receive.
