> PPTP VPN client for P800/P900?
Bookmark topic
We're investigating various options for giving our sales force access to
company email on handheld devices. Of course they already have this on
their laptops, but they want to be able to get at email from their phones as
well

Several of them already use P800s, so we're favouring a solution
that would use these, although we'll consider other devices if these are
more suitable.
One option is to just provide access to our existing VPN from the mobile
devices. So, we're looking for information on available VPN client software
for the P800 or P900. Specifically, is anyone aware of any PPTP (aka
Microsoft VPN) clients for these devices? Googling and searches of the
relevant forums hasn't turned anything up, but I'm not convinced there's no
such software available.
The Symbian 7 platform apparently has IPSec support built in, and there seem
to be a number of IPSec clients available (eg. the Movian VPN from
Certicom). While we *could* set up an IPSec VPN, we'd prefer not to unless
there's no other option, given that we have a perfectly good PPTP setup
working already.
Cheers,
Scott
