Blackberry Activesync Clients

Blackberry users who have an email systems not supported by RIM have either had to run the clunky NotifyLink software or use a cable sync. (ugh!) There are two new exciting products coming to market in the very near future:

AstraSync - http://www.astrasync.com/

Beta was recently released. There is a public forum available, and while there are people with issues...it appears there are many happy users. Unfortunately, the currently only support Exchange 2007. (with support for '03 coming soon)

NotifySync- http://notifysync.notify.net/Portal.asp

NotifySync is still in beta, but they appear to have much broader server support. They currently claim support Exchange 03 & 07, Communigate, Kerio, Zimbra. And while not explicitly mentioned, Zarafa & Scalix should work too.

Scalix? As far as I know Scalix doesn't support ActiveSync (not yet)

Activesync is currently in closed beta for Scalix, when it is released. Scalix should work...although, not officially supported yet.
