Little side-note here: T-Mobile carries BlackBerries, such as the Bold 9700 (my wife and I just got one each) and do not require a data plan. They DO require a minimum $14.99 service added on, though, so I was cheap and got the $14.99 unlimited text messaging. Just putting this out there, as it's cheaper than a full data plan. Though if you ask my wife, she couldn't exist without her Facebook etc on the go
