And I say, oh brilliant one, that there are plenty of corporations who have been using Android powered devices without third party applications. If you have the back office infrasturcture or have a corporate Gmail account it works BETTER than a BES server. And is far less costly.

Infomercial....

the device is great for fun and work but if you need email BB is it right now.
I hope that changes in the future as I dont want a BB.
Touchdown is a great app and i am glad I got it but....
not primetime yet for email... "Yet" and I will add IMHO but in many peoples as well.

Thats great! Serious! And I cannot and many other cannot. 
Doesn't this kind of depend on what your business uses for a backoffice infrastructure? Looks to me that the state government of California would prefer Android phones over every other smartphone that touts seamless Exchange capabilities (as they are transitioning to Google Apps). I'm sure they would much prefer the Android's ability to integrate with google offerings vs having to use POP mail retrieval on another phone.
From the beginning of smartphone time, 3rd parties have been developing apps and systems to integrate with existing infrastructure offerings (BES and Good Technologies for exchange) and there will always be a market for this.
The argument can even be made that google has a vested interest in NOT making exchange integration as good as they can since their google apps product is in direct competition with it.
Bottom line... to each his own. If your phone doesn't serve your business needs and your refuse to pay another cent for this ability, use another phone. for me, 10 bucks was a small price to pay for Touchdown. See if you can get BES for 10 bucks.

Hmm... I'm confused. Now... true... the email program won't forward an attachment, but once you view it, it's saved to your SD card. When you do hit forward, when the new compose window comes up, go to menu, hit "attachment" and if you have the free doc2go then you can go to the SD card and select the document that just downloaded and attach it to that email.
I just did this with my work email, which is an exchange based email with Active Sync and the native email app.
Gmail forwards it natively.

Pressing forward on my exchange account with any e-mail that has an attachment sends the attachment with it. No re-attaching required.
