Hey guys I just got a Blackberry Flip 8220 from a buddy to use. I recently sold my iPhone and when I got it last year I added the T-Mobile Total Internet package which at the time was only 19.99, well, they seem to have upped it to 34.99 but I still pay the cheap price because I never upgraded. If I upgrade to the BlackBerry plan and switch back, I would have to pay the extra 15 a month, they will not match the 19.99...So for now, I want to keep it at that, every phone I have used so far usually accepts my data plan but the BB tells me I need a BB plan. Anyway to use the apps on this thing without having to switch to the BB data plan? note that the browser works, but apps like Facebook tell me I dont have a BB plan...
..as in cahoots with wireless providers. Too many 3rd Party (and BB) programs require the data plan - it costs you and pays them. Mostly makes nonsense of the benefits of wi-fi on the devices.
