Hi,

I own a 5810 t-mobile blackberry.  

1) Am I assuming correctly that I can use another wirless ISP other
than T-Mobile for the always on email access.  (I know I have to use
T-Mobile for Cell phone)

2) Which Wireless ISP that supports blackberries
2A) is the cheapest right now?

3) Are they all unlimited email usage? (I only need a limited amount
of emails per month, maybe 50-100 wireless emails / month.) I do not
need unlimited.
I do not need wireless internet. I dont want to pay for that. (Usually
thats sold seperately, I ust want the email)

This is all assuming 1) I have other choices than just T-Mobile.

thank you.

The reason you bought T-mobile Blackberry is because they control the
network which powers the device. Therefore you can't go to another
wireless ISP to use there email since they don't have access to the
Blackberry Enterprise Server which is responsable for your email
access.

And one final option is the costly way, get your own Black berry
enterprise server, order a dedicate data line, secure it, and
integrate to your microsoft exchange or lotus domino server should you
have one.

or try:
www.nextel.com
www.attws.com
www.verizon.com
www.cingular.com
www.motient.com

but since you have a t-mobile device, your other option is another GSM
provider such ATT WS or Cingular...


Other wise my way around is to use a WAP microbrowser which you can
find for the blackberry, downloaded , install it using your blackberry
desktop manager and goto wap.yahoo.com and you can use there email
service via a microbrowser.

Or if your technicaly inclined, you can make your wirless email access
via WAP microbrowser.

Have fun.
