Earthlink and Comcast customers account for a significant amount of SPAM sent to my email server. I have contacted these ISP's repeatedly with date, time, and IP address of the offenders with zero response and I continued to be spammed by these same IP addresses.
I have Earthlink and Comcast designated as "terrible ISP" internally and now firewall out IP addresses sending spam from any ISP so designated.
When people are sending these ISPs all the information required to stop spam and they do nothing, I think anything they have to say regarding stopping SPAM rings hollow.
We are not talking best practices here, they cannot or will not do the minimum.
I used CDPC service on my Handspring for over a year and I was very happy with it. Note that I was probably lucky in that most of my time was in areas where the coverage was pretty good.
I have to point out that the coverage from Sharp/Verizon is nowhere near as good as was from Omnisky/Earthlink. LA and OC California coverage is available through AT&T and you are roaming 100 percent of the time. Ouch!

I think your boss is either pulling your leg or a complete numbskull. Franky, it sounds as if he listed every buzz-word in his vocabulary and then said give me something with one of all of these.
I think you need to look at the product you're building and decide what features you need or want to build it. I would recommend thinking more along the lines of what do you need at a minumum to complete this project. Using features just because they exist or sound coool is the road to hell. You need to understand what these tools are for before deciding to use them (or not to use them) and clearly your boss has no idea what he's talking about.
I recommend you get an idea what the project is about and try to lead him down the right path, ignoring his uniformed request.
