its like 30-40 dollars a month just to have a blackberry for verizon and that’s unlimited data, so add that to your existing cost

it’s around 30 for the data plan and 45 for unlimited. (added to your current plan) the biggest shock for me that i didnt realize is the blackberry doesnt have vcast. you have to get ringtones and games and stuff from other sources or through blackberry. but dont let that scare you…there are TONS of free stuff for the blackberry on the internet and so the extra charge actually evens out when you take everything in to consideration. i am a HUGE BERRY ADDICT and strongly reccomend it to anyone if you are into electronics! feel free to email me if you have any questions…i can send you to my fav bb sites!

The phone itself costs $249.99 with a new, two-year contract. You’ll receive a voucher for a $50 mail-in rebate with that, making the effective price $199.99. Verizon also sells all of their phones with one year contracts ($349.99) and month-to-month ($399.99).
You must buy this phone with an applicable data plan. The minimum plan for this phone is $49.99 for data only, no voice. For both voice and data, you’ll pay at least $69.99 total; $29.99 for the personal data plan and $39.99 for a 450-minute voice plan. That includes e-mail and Web browsing, but it doesn’t include SMS text messaging. SMS messaging packages range from $5 to $20/month depending on how many messages they include.
If you use the BlackBerry with a corporate server, add another $15. If you want to use it as a modem for your PC, add another $15. If you want to use it in foreign countries, add $10 or $20 depending on your existing plan.

You’ve got to go for the bigger plan (I think it’s $45 or so per month) as it seems like you get the best value for your money.
