Wow, $200/mo for web browsing? Lol. I think you may be referring to tethering though, which IS indeed quite expensive, but not *that* much to my knowledge.
I don't think Telus over here offers tethering at all yet, but Bell does at ... I think $60 and $90/mo depending on bandwidth allowance. Seriously, I think that's insane unless it's the only internet access you require (and you won't be downloading heavily...) In that case, maybe it actually makes some sense... hrm. :P
back to the O.P.; you guys on 9530 (VErizon, Telus, Bell) cant. But the rest of us on GSM networks (at&t, vodafone, rogers etc.) can if we are in a 3G area. Just one of the features that EVDO 3G lacks.

NOT!! Anyone who has hacked a Window Mobile phone, know this statement is a crock! It depends on the phone. I could surf while talking on my 4 year old HTC running on Sprint( CDMA, EVD0). Where do people get the delusion that GSM is better than CDMA? Just because GSM is a worldwide standard, doesnt mean it's better than CDMA.
This is the reason why iPhone 3G owners, such as myself, see my calls go direct to VM when the phone receives an email. FYI, the iPhone is GSM (ATT)!
