BIS? Help, please

Hello
I'm goin' to develop a simple application for a customer. The app is designed to load information from a Web Server / database via xml. My client does not have a BES or BIS, do they need BES or BIS for this kind of app?

What is the best approach?

and what are the disadvantage of direct connection without BIS or BES?

and also what are the benefits of using BIS or BES?

What is the best option for the http for bb devices connection.

Hi vonnero,

BlackBerry need a data plan to connect to the Internet.

BES is the company/organization using exchange or novel e-mail server and a BES server on internal infrastructure. BES need licenses for each user.

BIS connection is more flexible, any user using this data plan for BlackBerry and sign up to the carrier/telco.

I think that your client should decide the Organization will register as a company, BES

or they want just a BlackBerry application that can connect to a Web server?

If the target application that connect to a Web server, I think that they only have an ENCORE.

If they want to access an internal network within their organization, they need a BES.

Anyway,.

to develop a BlackBerry application that using an HTTPConnection.

Please see the thread: HTTP sample and BIS-B Access login code

or you can take a look at video network Transport: Networking transport II

hope his helps.
