Default Blackberry info

Hi everyone,

For all you IT nerds out there:

I've just gotten myself a Blackberry (got it for f*ckin cheap, outright, unlocked too, so not on a plan).

Work has told me that to get push email on the Blackberry from our Microsoft Exchange server, they need to install Blackberry Exchange Software which costs sh*tloads ($1000 per license apparently), and because of the price I need to get approval from the general manager (which probably won't happen).

When I had my PDA, I used to be able to get push email from our Exchange server just by inputting the server details into Mobile Outlook installed on the PDA.

My question is, is this available to be done on my Blackberry, or do I need to use the proper Blackberry licensed software to be able to do this? I mainly want to sync my tasks, calendar and emails with Outlook straight from our Exchange server.

Cheers
