Default Data Plans Help
Ok, I don't know if this is the right place for this but...

I currently have an iPhone 3g, with the data plan Obviously. I am buying a Blackberry curve, and I was wondering what I would need to do.

I would like to get all he curve features like app store, BB messenger, and such, but at the same time, I would sometimes like to use my iPhone.

Will the Blackberry work on the iPhone's data plan?

Will the iPhone work on the Blackberry data plan?
Thanks

No you can't, a lot of services of the Blackberry won't work.

iPhones will SORT OF work, but visual voicemail may not.

Essentially:

Smartphone feature: unlimited data with smartphone class device.
iPhone feature: Smartphone + Apple VVM (if you want it), other Apple holdouts (coming soon)
BlackBerry: Smartphone + RIM services. Gotta' pay the TRIBUTE. BB VVM is optional for 3G BB devices.

If you can't access internet using 3G simply go to help.BenM.at | BENM.AT using the Wifi in your iPhone and install the AT&T profile... It should work afterwards.

Tethering, and probably something related to the bidirectional video conferencing the iPhone 4 does on wifi at the moment. Of course, take it all with a grain of iodized salt, because until you can use it, it doesn't exist.
