How do I set them up? I haven't been sent any passwords or anything. Should I have been?
Sorry if this seems really petty. Technology is not my strong point.
Thanks in advance for any help people can offer me!

the line next to your wifi, could that be just telling you your wifi is switched on, you need to logon to that wifi signal & then it will show it's name (ie: your own wifi at home, or other wifi operator)
when you have bb service enabled you can enter your own email address(es) & your own passwords into the setup wizard / email setup, after that mail will be sent to your phone. hotmail / windows live now works in blackberry, or you can use gmail or whatever. it also does work related email (i dunno about this as i'm a hotmail user)
first thing is to get the bb service on, which is a small fee compared to the rest of your plan. probably best to register online, & then add things you need. sorry to say that, if you have contract for just calls & text, then just calls & text you will get!... until you update your plan that is.
did o2 not offer you free blackberry service & data with it? not trying to be funny, but if o2 offered you a blackberry on contract then surely the bb plan came with it? you might even find you have it free for a time, maybe you just need to enable it. try registering your phone on o2 & look at exactly what is available to you
