I found it on their website under the blackberry plans; but it doesn’t say “unlimited” explicitly.

the cool thing about AT&T is SIM cards, you can get a free phone from them with the unlimited internet plan for a basic phone for $15 a month. eBay the phone and buy your blackberry unlocked, swap your sim, and save $15-30 a month.

evolve you know you can defend VZ all day long and I have no issues with them, except they epic fail in this day in age with pda/blackberry plans in that they do not have family plans. Last I looked at the web page with my plan it basically said no you to having a family plan with 2 pda’s.

Once the 3G versions are out I am going with Iphone myself, the web browsing alone on them are just worlds above BB’s or the other WinMo smart phones.

And in many ways completely true… verizon has a lackluster phone offering that is typically crippled featureset wise.

Completely serious and I understand you not wanting bad info passed around BUT Verizon phones have historically had features disabled where there counterparts on other providers have worked.

historically yea they were admittedly pretty lackluster and behind the times. i think the past year has been pretty good though, especially on the higher end of things.
