Is that the bottom line here?
Almost. ;)
AT&T, and most other carriers, offer two flavors of the BlackBerry Data Plan. Enterprise (BES) and Personal (BIS).

They're virtually identical in all ways except for one.
The BES data plan will allow your device to activate on a BES. The BIS plan won't.

You'll have full Internet access on your device regardless of which plan you choose.
