Apple, Microsoft to push Exchange Direct Push to iPhone?
Rumor has it that Apple has licensed Exchange Active Sync after all, so let the Direct Pushing begin. Of all the gripes we've heard since this handset was announced, this one was by far the most prevalent, and indeed even a showstopper for some. It seems that Microsoft will announce the licensing of EAS tomorrow, though we aren't sure if this support will be included out of the box, or as an update in the near future. So now all the iPhone faithful will be armed with one more tool to defend themselves against the non-believers -- and here's hoping that the keyboard won't fail them as they begin pushing those missives out.

If this comes out to be true, I'll be in line with all the other dorks at the local Apple/AT&T store.

Ahmen. I am very disappointed with AT&T's Edge, one thing I can't seem to be able to do is to use DUN or PAN to gain Internet access on my laptop, something I was able to do with the Treo. It blows when people make such fantastic devices but basically disable really great features in order to protect the service providers other financial interest. I'm surprised AT&T let them release the iPhone with wifi capability, that was something dumped from the Treo 650 because Sprint wanted to make sure you used their pay service for internet.
