From BBFAQ

With NO data plan you may:

* make phone calls
* send/receive text SMS messages
* NOT use any instant messenger program
that anyone has found so far
* use the device as a standalone PIM
* NOT send or receive any information over the internet, in any way shape or form, despite what you heard about it being possible

^^ Not sure what this is all about.

To the OP... yes. Because you have a BlackBerry Data Plan (assuming it's a BlackBerry data plan) , you can use WiFi to get BlackBerry email and use BlackBerry Messenger. You will not be charged for data usage by your carrier.
