Email, Calendar, tasks issues:
Wes: (Blackberry) Primary account and calendaring. No issues with calendar except stale reminders showing up. Most reminders are for meetings at least a week old. Reported to Richard Edelson.
Answer: New device will recall old events until dismissed.
With Mail: Replied to emails throughout the day. Noticed a blue circle next to each but were all sent at 6:30pm. Incoming mssgs continued to show up during the day. Battery life of blackberry is much shorter. Possibly will last 24 hours with limited use. Cursor movement delayed (due to traffic usage).
Andrew: 2 other users on BES have not had the battery issues.
When composing email to another MIT user, type name and it will grab the address from the global address book. (Not everyone can be found---reported to tregan by Wes).
iPhone: no issues with email, calendar, contacts. No test with notes. Global mail directory works well.
Windows Mobile: Chris: everything across the board seems to be working as expected. Hasn't opened a vmail attachment. Will test.

Mobile exchange wiki. Please review. Documents are incomplete for the blackberry.

Blackberry Enterprise Server MIT policies. Posting to wiki.
option to control every aspect of device.
Passcode policy: Should a device password be mandated? Who will reset the passwords if user forgets?
How to deal with lost devices: Small window of time to retrieve the device. User will decide whether or not they want us to initiate a remote wipe. User to login to BIS and "delete their stuff." Notify carrier to blacklist a device.
End of life (of device): When should students access to BES end?
