I have a feeling this isn't public information that people would know. It's something between RIM and the carrier. Other than curiosity, why do you need to know this? I'm not sure I really even want to know this because someone is making a lot of money. If I were to guess, it would probably be split down the middle. I have a 20% discount on my data plans, so I only pay 24/month for mine.

I don't need to know but I would like to. Can't be split down the middle, why would RIM charge different carriers a different price for offering the same service?
I also have a discount which would disprove the 50/50 idea, verizon takes the hit on my savings not rim. I don't think rim would get paid less for customers vzw gives discounts to.

I guess I didn't explain it good enough. As in, take your 30/month charge and split it down the middle, which would be $15. Of course RIM isn't going to take a hit for the discount Verizon gives.
I also think that RIM could charge differently for different carriers. It's all in a contract they both agree on. I'm sure some huge companies (Verizon, Att) pay differently than smaller ones. Some carriers have limited data plans, that charge less for the same service. It all comes down to the services that the carrier wants to give to their customers.
And once again, I don't see how this affects anything. I also don't believe you will get any concrete answer to this. Maybe study RIM's financial statements?
