If they didn't have that big 170W power supply, you wouldn't be able to run the thing and charge the battery at the same time.

This is no different from dot matrix printer specifications from long ago. Sure your printer would do 250cps as long as all the characters were the number 1.

With all your mail marked as unread. Yep I can do that too. State does not get picked up by Blackberry email client so no way to tell if a message was already read or responded. Sure it supports IMAP but as I said terribly.

Maybe corporate messaging but not for the rest of us. For instance, their imap support is terrible and if you need to get your email from an imap server you'll need another client than the native blackberry one. So you have a choice between tight integration and barely functional imap support, or functional imap with little or no integration with the rest of the system.

Sorry emacs doesn't get to sit with vi or ed. even on Linux and FreeBSD, you'll see nano before you'll ever see Emacs there to help you rescue/setup your system. But true the rest of your statement about sysadmins needing to know many tools.
