Default Prepaid Data Plan

Ok, I have been searching the internet for 2 days straight to find a good solution for my situation here but no luck so far.

I have a Blackberry 8520 formerly on T-Mobile, now unlocked. I want to use my blackberry once again but I don't want to be locked into a contract (they suck). I need unlimited Blackberry data, text messaging and low minutes (300 is more than enough) but I don't want to have to spend an arm and a leg for this. Does anyone have any suggestions on who to go with for a prepaid plan? I notice T-Mobile has prepaid and they supposedly have Blackberry prepaid but you can't get that on their web site, plus it is like $80/month.

Thanks, but I was looking for something less expensive. Their Even More Plus plan is $79.99/month. I have found another place, mysimplemobile.com has everything text, talk, data for $60/month. Has anyone seen any deals better than this one?

Simple Mobile is fine but you better not use more than 1GB of data in 1 month or they can cancel your service without telling you.

If you need more data than that but use less than 500 min, I suggest the $60 Even More Plus plan with T-Mobile, which costs the same as Simple Mobile, but you're not limited to 1GB. fewer minutes though...

at this time the only data available one prepay is regular dumb phone(only on a 1$ per hour baisis)
and unlimited sidekick...if you want anything else then you would have to use Even more Plus to get it without a contract threw tmo

do you really need an unlimited data plan? BB dont exactly use that much data, especially since your 8520 is on edge.

just some food for thought
