Paul Robichaux: It is interesting that you chime in here on this. I emailed you on 6/21 seeking your help in finding out more info (due to the lack of response from MS officially). Here's that message:
"Paul,
Perhaps you could give me some helpful guidance. I have read a great deal about the upcoming Exchange 2003 Service Pack 2 and related Mobile 5 Feature Pack.
Somewhat cryptically dispersed throughout all of the official/semi-official/unofficial communication is the suggestion that 3rd Party Exchange Activesync licensees (Palm, Nokia/Symbian, DataViz, Motorola, etc.) have *some* access to new features/functionality. However, absolutely NOTHING I have found gives ANY indication of the new features (or should we call them new "limitations") available.
Of course, it is understood that actual 3rd party implementation is subject to the Licensee's own programming update decisions…BUT…
Will 3rd Party devices have access to DirectPush? Contacts? Tasks? Notes?
Thanks for any additional information you may have,

You did not respond...which is basically the response I and others are getting from everywhere...including on this blog!
I note also that the original MEC docs have been recently edited to delete some of the relevant information...
Personally, I now suspect that MS is proactively preventing PalmOS Treos from having access to Direct Push in order to further the upcoming 700w. (Something I consider very anti-competitive; but as you say, sure to be a "huge competitive advantage for them.)
What I know for sure, is that there is no Official Statement that spells everything out. So either the obfuscation is intentinoal or idiotic.
You know, I talked to the DataViz folks for months, but then, magically, they dropped all Palm Support (basically) in their RoadSync product...I wonder why?
