We're a single exchange server organization with a linux smtp smarthost. It's working very well for us.

I'm at a much smaller org (< 25 users, with a max of 5 who need wireless mobile e-mail access). Currently I'm supporting one company-owned Blackberry, and several user-owned Palm-OS devices, which is getting to be a drag. I'm a long-time Palm OS user, and hate the thought of bowing to the MS hegemony yet again, but, like you, since we have the ActiveSync capability on hand already, and buying the devices and plans is enough of a stretch, getting BB Enterprise Server or Good Mail.
