Default Question about using Prepaid SIM Cards Overseas

Please Login to Remove!

I'm using a BlackBerry Storm, and I'm thinking about going to Cape Town in a few weeks.

If I got it unlocked, and used a Vodacom Prepaid SIM Card (with BlackBerry service enabled on the account), would my existing BIS email get sent to my device on the Vodacom network?

Does anyone now if the prepaid BIS service is offered by any carrier in the US? If so what are the prices?
