> I think he is also talking about text messaging and other data features. Unfortunately for him his point sucks because AT&T is the same exact price. Sprint and T-Mobile are cheaper and also much worse service/coverage. AT&T also doesn’t let you bundle the Unlimited minutes with the unlimited corporate e-mail. You have to pay extra for that, whereas Verizon’s $129.99 includes both personal and corporate e-mail.

I am basing this when I was comparing a blackberry on verizon to an iphone on att with exactly the same features. Unlimited minutes, data, and texting to anyone and Verizon is not cheaper.

Also ,for the people who said that RIM was failing, they just ended up on the top 10 american IT companies.
