I sometimes find myself envious of those Blackberry users out there that have access to their email with them all the time. Not so envious that I plan on going out and purchasing a Blackberry… at least not this year! But rather wishing that I could send and receive emails, especially when traveling or out of the office.

It seems as though a solution may be on the way, however, from a company called Berggi. They have developed a way for cell phone users to send and receive emails through the phone that they probably already have. According to the Berggi site, the service will work with inexpensive phones, even those you might get free with your plan. The service will not, however, work with a Blackberry, Treo of computer style phone.

There are plans for email and/or instant messaging and all plans seem to include free text messaging to other Berggi user. Service plans start at $9.99 a month after a 3-month trial period.

So, if you are looking for an email option for your current cell phone, surf over to Berggi and see what you think.
