try Seven beta, they do a push type service that is currently free. They don't do the whole AS experience though.

I am using a FREE Mail2web LIVE account to sync my mail with MS push.. but today i received this mail:

Dear mail2web LIVE Customer,


We have some very important changes that will affect your account that we want to let you know about. We're very glad that you've found your mail2web LIVE account useful. It has always been our intention to provide high quality and affordable Exchange solutions, and we have done our best to keep the mail2web LIVE service free over the years. However due to our planned upgrade to Exchange 2007 and to changes in our licensing agreements with Microsoft, there will be some changes to your service.

If you no longer want to keep your account, do nothing and it will be cancelled on May 1, 2009. If you want to keep your account, please read on...

Choose Your New Plan

If you want to keep your account active, you will be required to log into the Control Panel before May 1, 2009 and choose the new plan you would like to upgrade to. Here are the available options:

1. Our new free service is called mail2web LIVE Basic and includes an ad-free Outlook Web Access 2007. Please note that the ActiveSync and BlackBerry services are not supported with mail2web LIVE Basic.

2. The new Exchange 2007 version of mail2web LIVE will be available for $4.95/month and will include Outlook Web Access 2007, ActiveSync, POP3, IMAP4 and SMTP Service and more. We are also offering a 60-Day Free Trial of this service that includes ActiveSync, allowing you to try out the new platform before you commit to buying!

3. Our new mail2web LIVE Pro service will provide full access and include all the mail2web LIVE features plus a free copy of Outlook 2007 or Entourage 2008 as well as the MAPI access and RPC over HTTPS service required to configure the account in Outlook. The new mail2web LIVE Pro service is available for $9.95/month and we are offering a 60-Day Free Trial with full functionality!

I realize this is late but I hope your "old hardware" is not too old 2007 requires 64bit chip so not too bad but I was looking at the beta for Exchange 2010.

Unfortunately 2010 is much more demanding and requires Server 2008 X64 with min 4GB Ram and am not about to take down my main desktop.

just for the record, there is a non productive / unsupported version of exchange2007 x86 out there ;)

btw. the "old hardware" is a 2ghz amd cpu with 2gb ram ;) atm i'm stuck with several exchange services -.- they won't start. i'm trying to bypass the prob right now in a virtual machine on my esx3.5 at work. and yes, i'm using exchange2007 sp1 on windows server 2008. damn that thing :mad:
