I was wondering if anybody had any recommendations for what I can install on my Tilt to allow me to connect to Exchange. Unfortunately, my company uses BES, and therefore can't be bothered to make the little changes necessary to the Exchange server to support ActiveSync. They just say, "Get a Blackberry", but won't expense the cost of getting one. I installed the Blackberry Connect on the Tilt for awhile, but it's so inconsistent that it's virtually unusable. Any time a data connection is requested for anything other than Blackberry, it disconnects Blackberry, forcing me to close every data connection, then restart Blackberry Connect. It's insane.
I've done a bit of research, but everything that comes up stupidly seems to require connecting the phone to a computer, or leaving the computer on and having a service running while I'm away. Neither of those are workable options for me, since when I'm on the road, I probably won't have my laptop on, otherwise I wouldn't need my smartphone at all.
So in the absence of those options, is there any other way at all to connect to Exchange? It doesn't have to be Push, but I don't want more than about 15 minutes of lag time.
Any ideas?
