Default Blackberry phones on Boost

I have a question about using Boost. I read they are getting ready to add blackberry packages and the Blackberry 8330 to thier line up of phones. Ive read the work arounds that others on here have posted for getting the 8350i working on the Boost network. So once they start selling and offering the blackberry packages would you still have to go through all that work to get a non Boost branded blackberry to work on there network?? Im assuming not once the blackberry packages are in place with Boost. I would think the BBM and everything would work on them.

Boost uses IDEN network, so the blackberry device must use this network, a non GSM network which use the SIM cards. I'm not aware of any other Blackberry models that use the IDEN networks.
It will be somewhat Proprietary!

Boost uses both cdma and iden. They are getting ready to offer blackberry services. I just don't want to be limited to the curve.
