Blackberry is PUSH EMAIL....
But they have also created a program to be run on non Blackberry Products...
The decision is whether you want a Blackberry or just the facility!

@ranjith: 'push' email is simply email which is 'pushed' to you from the server, as opposed to you 'pulling' from the server, i.e. you get automatic notification of new email, instead of having to check for new email yourself.
Blackberry is a kind of push email system, and works more or less the same on both Blackberry phones and non-Blackberry phones that have a Blackberry client installed on them.

I am aware of the basic concept of blackberry and how it works, but can we get our web-based emails 'pushed' or does this apply only to ISP server email accounts? And I assume the blackberry client has a price tag if we wish to install it? I'm just not well-versed with the details, your help is very much appreciated.

Push email is possible from other Email system (Eg. Non- BB)
These are usally Windows Outlook/Exchange based systems (with the SP2 updates etc.) and you then use a client on the phone for them to connect to. (dataViz/Exchange RoadSync client etc.)
An example is the free 'mail2web' account you can sign up for.
Tried this for a while, but the cost of maintaining a GPRS conenction all the time hurt my pocket ! (and the battey)
I must admit to now using a 'scheduled' email download to the phone in preference. It means that I can set it up for my way of working etc. (set it up to only run from 9 to 5 and on the hour, which means less interrupts while working.)
Some people have been having problem with the client version for the phone also....

@mode
If your ISP supports IMAP IDLE, then you can get push email at no cost on top of your normal data cost [I'm excluding your ISP hosting charge here].
I just posted more detailed information in another thread:
