BES=Blackbery Enterprise Server. It is used by corporations mostly for corporate email/BB solutions. There are also third party companies that provide BES services (small monthly fee) for those that are not on a corporate system. Great system, overall, if you can get on one. It provides wireless sync for almost all your BB data. Downside is some corporations push IT policies to the devices that can restrict any or all functions of the BB.
