Link: PC World – First Look: New Services Offer E-Mail for Everyday Cell Phones

Full-blown e-mail management is the raison d’etre for smart phones such as BlackBerry units, Windows Mobile devices, Palm Treos, and Symbian-based handsets. But what if you don’t have a high-end cell phone? A pair of free services, Flurry and Teleflip, let you monitor (but unfortunately not respond to) e-mail on a wide variety of mass-market handsets. Both are useful, but in different ways.

    Nice one! I wasn’t aware of Flurry but it’s excellent (having just rushed to try it!). There are a few rough edges and some improvements to be made, but it’s a really useful service for checking all your accounts in one place.

    One improvement they’re apparently planning is the ability to tag or separate your accounts. You can’t at the moment, it just mixes all messages together, but that will be the killer enhancement.

    I’m also very impressed at how easily it sets up your account access, no matter what type of account it is.

    I seem to have a thousand and one ways to access my email on my X-Series N73, but this might just be the most straightforward and I’ve already passed on the tip to colleagues with data plans and they’re loving it.

    It’s no wonder SMS Text News is on my Netvibes front page!!
