email on a cell phone

I just read an article on dslreports about a new web service that will allow users to access their email on their phones via POP3. They said that it was going to put blackberries out of business. I am just puzzled...

My non-blackberry phone is synced via IMAP to my google email, meaning any changes I make on my phone (deleted email) shows up on my computer and gmail. That blows blackberry out of the water. Also, my email is constantly connected via the IDLE command, which means I get email instantaneosly without my battery being drained. In fact, I check the email on my phone about 98 percent of the time (since my email is all taken care of by the time I get to a computer). This makes for a better family life.

Finally, I can blog from my very own treo (as seen by this post), which just makes me smile.

In short, I'm not giving up my treo with chattermail.
