I just looked - mine is a blackberry bold 9000 smart phone not a storm - sorry. I was having a bit of a panic then with the wi-fi discussion as this was something I specifically asked for.

I got them on vodaphones $69 and $119 caps - we use them for business use with my husband being all over Australia putting up signs (so in lots of rural areas) and I am in brisbane a lot (not far but still not on my landline)

even with telstra phones we are on the $99+ caps so we have just moved over and hope to cut our usage a bit to keep in the new caps. Also the free email to email and texting means a lot of stuff can be kept down to that

Builder - hopefully I will be using mine day and night soon - I am a web developer but a complete technophobe with new things (go figure ). I think its just I dont like change

The $69 phone plan is the one I've considering too.

I think it's free BB email period.

Have you updated the firmware for the device???

Apparently this fixes a few niggly issues with it.
