Default BB Plan with iPhone

I know, I know. This has been asked 1,000+ times. I see answers all over the internet saying it works fine, but most of them are outdated. As of today, does having a Blackberry data plan work in conjunction with an iPhone for data usage? I know some settings need to be changed and I will not have 3G or UMA, but I am just hoping the same data plan works so I can just swap between the phones.

Thanks

Tested with a 2g iphone and everything works fine. Just change the APN to epc.tmobile.com or wap.voicestream.com

So in a nutshell; we can keep the BB plan and use other non RIM devices?

For the most part on Tmo Data is Data... Certain data plans can utilize different APNs. So yes you can use BB plan on other phones. My $4.99 Tzones works with my 8900. I only get lower cased "edge" but the browser and mms works fine.
