For EMail, you can beat Touchdownby Nitrodesk for an Android device.

I recently installed Touchdown on my Galaxy S2. After using a blackberry for years, the Android standard email app was not up to Par or what I was used to. After doing some reasearch I installed the 30 day trial version of Touchdown and purchased the full version within a few hours. I have been using it for a week now (mainly for email) and it is just what I wanted. Its quick, easy to use, vibrant and not far off blackberry mail. I am using Android 2.3.3, running Microsoft Exchange from MS Outlook 2010.

Does Touchdown support other mail servers besides MS Exchange? Currently have IMail 11.03 installed and would like to support Android phones.

Also, how would this effect the Sense UI of a Hero? There is tight email integration through the contact UI on the Hero (showing recent messages, etc.).

George,

Do you have any problems with opening attachments with Moxier Mail? On my Droid the application crashes when I attempt to open a PDF or Doc. Jpegs open fine. I emailed support, but have not heard back from them. Thanks.

The app is OK, but not nearly as polished as Moxier Mail. I tried them (as well as the Data Viz Road Sync app) on the new Droid and found Moxier was by far the best. I found it really made up for the shortcomings in the Android 2.0 Exchange App.

Brademcee - when an e-mail comes in it shows in the windowpane at the top of the screen, if you pull it down you see who is the email from and whats the subject. If you click on it opens it up.
Contacts and Calendar are not yet synced with Google contacts and Google calendar, although you can push your contacts from TouchDown to be synched with your phone contacts.
I personally use Google Calendar Sync on my desktop which syncs my outlook with my Google calendar.
I have been using it for a month now, excellent product well worth 20 bucks.... only purchase I made and glad I did.

Can you tell me what the other options are for email notification? I am looking for a notification similar to a desktop preview. Basically, when an email comes in, I want to see a preview flash on the screen. If not, are the only options for LED or notifications in the task bar?

Also, how would this effect the Sense UI of a Hero? There is tight email integration through the contact UI on the Hero (showing recent messages, etc.).

Thanks
