Well... Blackberry wasn't very interested in increasing our push quota (but they eventually did). Apple is Apple ... getting them to make exceptions is very hard. Android push problems were more often on-device, which Google can't really help with; even when it was their software, they're not going to set it up to make exceptions. Nokia and Microsoft did try to be helpful with pushes... but their platforms are gone. Nokia S60 never had push, but those devices were very good at staying connected to our servers.

All that said, it's not like the platform developers are fully in the wrong when they're reducing pushes. It does have an impact on battery life, and if users aren't acting on them quickly, maybe the platform shouldn't either, even if there's risks when delaying communication.
