Prepaid Monthly Plan on T-mobile ... NO BB Data??

[mg259usa]

Yo Crackberry Genius'

Just wanted an update on the situation regarding a prepaid plan with t-mobile, and whether or not i'm going to be able to use the data plan on a BB?

I'm getting mixed messages! i have the prepaid 1500 from TMO, which has a small data package, but i've heard that it can't be accessed with a BB, and that nobody offers a prepaid BB data package without paying out the nose for it.

Any information is appreciated!

(if there is a way to get full BB functionality on the TMO prepaid plan please direct me to the forum on how to do so!)

Thanks guys!

If you ask a good rep at a T-Mobile corporate store they will tell you that Blackberries won't work right with the prepaid plans because of no access to BIS but someone told me you can set the browser to work with it but that's it, nothing else just basic phone functions.

That's what T-Mobile told me when I went to buy one for my old 9700 but had changed my mind after that. If you search the T-Mobile forum there is a post telling how to set the Blackberry up with a regular data plan which explains how to do the browser but I can't remember who posted it, sorry.

Update: I have been looking around and some people have posted on here about calling T-Mobile and having them activate a Blackberry Enabler, that might work for you. This forum post may help too.
