RIM vs Microsoft Exchange

I was curious about how the technologies differ and advantage on each side. Here is my finding about reading a fairly in-depth analysis from this article.

- RIM's push technology is not much different from MS's Direct Push
- RIM allows operator to have a cut in the revenue stream. Operator is not that happy about MS not allowing them for a piece of the pie.
- MS wants to provide the service for free.
- On the other hand, operators would like to see more email service to leverage the revenue sharing terms.
