Can an AT&T user with a data plan get BB data over wifi? I mean email and BB messenger, not internet.

Basically if you travel overseas (and have a BB data plan), can you turn of the mobile network, connect to a wifi spot and get BB data?

Follow up question, please?

Do you only get charged for data that goes thru the network and not for the data that goes thru wifi?
