A new startup (named Berggi) is planning to launch this coming Thanksgiving a simplified alternative to the Blackberry e-mail delivery service from Canada's Research In Motion, which dominates the mobile professional market.Berggi aims to offer messaging services for basic mobile phones that still represent two-thirds of the U.S. mobile market. Users of Blackberry or rival e-mail services on Palm or Microsoft software need more expensive, so-called smartphones. Consumers can send and receive e-mail on their phones from Internet services such as Yahoo, Microsoft or Google, along with popular instant-messaging services. Berggi delivers any text in the body of an e-mail, but not document attachments.

Here's how it works:
