I don't understand the difference between AUTD (today) and this "Push Email" that requires WM5 and 2003 SP2?

Eric - AUTD used SMS as a trigger to tell the device to there was new email. This worked fine where you could send SMS messages for free but in most countries it costs say 2.5p a message to send the trigger - if I get 400 emails a day - thats £10 a day just for the trigger let alone data usage!

With Direct Push (our new technology) we use IP and an SSL HTTPs mechanism to provide the Push capability instead of SMS - it's much more efficient and only uses minimal data per month.

I just convinved my it manager to let me try this, but then realized that I don't have AKU 2.0 on my imate K-JAM (HTC Wizard). I hate being at the mercy of the OEMs for this update...is there any way to get it directly?

Does anyone know the build number for devices with AKU2? What happens when the OEMs decide they dont want to provide us with AKU2?

Cingular just released a great smartphone but Im not sure it has AKU2 on there and without the directpush email it doesnt seem worth it to me!
