I have it running. It works most of the time. I find it goes to Suspend a lot. I am not sure why. I either Restart or unsuspend it. I also get a lot of "Blocked - Radio in use". Either way, it works and I get email and calendar syncs. Do you have the BB Connect plan on your carrier account?

Is pIE running in the background?? This will hog the GPRS connection and stop the device from connecting to blackberry APN.

Very true. I find myself closing "connection happy" applications (i.e pIE) to get connected again. I don't think the BB Connect client is capable of handling the connection priorities.

I have a 750v with the vodaphone ROM and it works very good, whenever I launch the PIE it switches to the "regular" GPRS connection once theere is no more traffic it goes back to the blackberry connection.

Anyone has a Blackberry Connect 4.0 Software? I am using Groupwise at work and I was told that this is the only BB software that will work with my treo 750.

I tried BB Connect 2.1 but that only works with Exchange or Lotus.

Thanks.

BB Connect 4.0 is not available yet, only for beta testing. We should see these new clients in summer.

I contacted BB support and they are saying that the BETA will be released this summer.

I am hoping someone already has it and can get me a copy.

Thanks.

As far as I know BB Connect 4.0 for Windows Mobile will only work with Windows Mobile 6. So on the current Palm Treo 750 this new client won' t work. First there must be a WM6 upgrade for the Palm. An other platform which will support BB Connect 4.0 will be the new E90 Nokia Communicator.

Update:
No WM6 ROM required! BB Connect 4.0 works fine with the Treo 750v and the Vodafone Netherlands ROM 1.12.0.c.
The client can be found here:

The file has been pulled out of the forum. I can't find it anywhere. Could you send it to me. Thanks.
