Personal Blackberry Help

Afternoon everyone.
I have purchased a blackberry for my wife and would like to setup Email, Calendar and Contact Sync. I want to be able to use Outlook 2010 to edit all 3 which will inturn sync to her blackberry.

What email provider should I use. Hotmail only seems to sync email, and gmail seems to sync all 3 from web to BB but not from Outlook.

Any help would be appreciated.

With blackberry if you would like to sync a outlook email you would need to purchase blackberry mail from your provider (monthly service) which basically allows you to sync email, calendar and contacts, unfortunately i don't think there is any other way of doing this. The email is is 'pushed' to your phone which basically means it is instant.

I am with Tmobile, and I have just purchased unlimited email and blackberry boosters? But I think I now need an email provider?

If you have already purchased it then it should be fine, did they supply you with any details about the email forwarding?

I can get email from either hotmail or gmail delivered to the phone, but they dont seem to support calendar and contact sync to blackberry/outlook.
