hi, im interested to know about blackberry. I have absolutely no experience in this and i need your help.

I don't really understand how the service+data packages work for blackberry. Must I purchase official blackberry services from celcom/maxis/digi to use it?

I'm currently on a normal maxis with 500mb data plan, so if i simply went out to buy a blackberry on the market and put my sim card in, will i be able to use its things like web browsers using my 500mb data? Or maybe the phone won't work without official data/service packages?

To TS and ALL,
Pls remember this golden rule: "A BB without BIS/BES plan is a useless phone"

FOr your case, U can surf using 3rd party browser like bold and operamini.
Other main feature like IM (MSN, Y!M, ICQ, Google talk, AIM), Social networking (Facebook, Flickr, MySpace and etc), BB Messenger, Push Email, GoogleMap and etc will not work properly.

SO the answer is YES, U need BIS from celcom/maxis/digi for u to enjoy the BB features and not just a phone with limited function (ala RM300 China phone)

hmm..what do you mean by not working properly?

Assuming that i don't use push emails and BB messenger..other downloaded apps should work right...like a nokia phone? Or maybe i must 'jailbreak' the phone to use it?
