Question about mobile email
I have finally upgraded my Audiovox 9900...yes..that one. It should have won an award for best phone ever!! Anyways, went with the Krave since I thought was a great looking phone. I am interested in the mobile email since it will in a way let me know what an email has arrived, sort of like a fake BB if I'm not mistaken. I understand its $5/mo & then $1.99 MB. On average, how many emails would fit into 1MB? Looking over my options, the only other thing to do would be the VPAK for $15 and the $5 mobile email feature for unlimited. Please let me know if I am correct in all of this of if you have any other ideas. Thanks!!

Mobile email is NICE! It's not nearly as good as a Blackberry, but I usually have my email notification on my Voyager less then 10 minutes after the message hits my inbox, which is plenty fast enough for me!
I have no idea how many emails per MB you would get since I honestly have no idea how much data I'm using on emails myself, but the Connect plan I'm on has worked wonders for me. It's $10 per month (per line) more then the regular unl text package and it gives me the Mobile Email app and unlimited MB usage for the Web Browser (which I might add is a bit better on your Krave then my Voyager- I'm a bit jealous, but the Versa beats them both).

The download of the mobile email application itself is about 0.8MB, you could stuff about 68 emails in the remaining 0.2MB (with 341 emails per MB, or 3KB per email)
The 3KB per email size can of course vary from email to email, the size comes from an averaged size supplied by VZW, I'm not certain how big the sample size was, nor the content.
Mobile email doesn't work quite like the (and other email services, like wireless sync, etc) as it periodically polls your email account to check for new messages. The BB and similar services actually have a program on a computer that will notify your phone as soon as a message comes in.
The main thing that results in is a small delay from when the email is received to your account and when you...
