Is there anyway at all (programs, tweaks?) to be able to get IM or email without having a data/internet plan? Like it should use your texts as IM like other phones.

I have t-mobile, and all the phones i had all had IM like AIM and it all worked using texts, no internet required. And those were cheap little flip phones and everything. But with my blackberry pearl SMARTphone i expect to be able to do the same.

So is there any program out there or something that i can get to be able to have AIM without an internet connection on my phone?

If you have a bb from tmo, the aim on your bb counts toward your text plan. Each message you sent on aim is a text mesage..each message is like .10. That's why only 30 buddies show up on your list when logging aim because its not connected to data.
As for email, I have no clue.

If you can't afford the BB data plan, maybe you shouldn't have a BB at all. The two just go hand in hand really.

are all your posts like the ones above?
not to be mean, but giving me the forum rules is not helping me at all...
and this is not a workaround for anything. please read my post again. i said i already have a unlimted text plan but no data plan.
oz messenger uses text, jivetalk uses data.
oz messenger is supposed to come on the pearl, but mine didnt have it... so i'm asking how can i put oz messenger back on my phone? so im doing anything illegal here, just trying to get an app back on my phone....
thanks

I quoted the rules not just for you, but for anyone that is considering posting here. Nor is there anywhere in your post that you say you have a text messaging plan.

No where in there do you say that you have an unlimited text plan.

your right i probably should've edited the first post. but i do say it in my next post.
new question, i heard someone downloaded the BB pearl simulator off tmo website and they downloaded OZ messenger on that then switched that software with their phone.

well i got the simulator but it seems like theres no internet on it. anyone know a way to set that up so i can try it out?
