Very comprehensive but I can't say my experience has been identical.

this can work also on external WiFi networks if your BES administrator has used IT Policy to push VPN connection properties down to your WiFi-enabled Blackberry.
I have not done this and can send and receive BES email fine on my home WLAN without any need for additional configuration either via a BES policy or device config. My BES servers are hosted at my office, not at RIM.

For all other data (e.g., 3rd party apps, IM programs, etc.) the use of WiFi for data at this time again primarily relies on your mobile operator supporting UMA.
Every app I've tested so far (including third party spell checks and Google maps) work automatically over Wi-Fi if I disable the cellular connection, which has surprised me.
