So my fear is Blackberry general overhead, and Google calendar sync, the only data feature really being used, will add up and possibly put use over 200MB.
Does anyone know how much these things use over the course of a month? Are there any other background data hogs I should look out for? Is a 200MB plan O.K. for light Blackberry use or am I setting myself up for giant overage charges?

SMS doesn't apply to data, so no need to worry there. 10 emails and light browsing won't bring you to 200mb in a month. As long as she isn't streaming music, or doing a lot of heavy browsing, she shouldn't even come close to 200mb.
