Re: Doesn't BlackBerry do their own backhaul

said by joelliot See Profile :

I've heard BlackBerry does their own data networks. So if you are in a country that supports BlackBerry you aren't roaming.

Anyone comment?
I can't comment for all Blackberries but with Verizon, all you have to do is have an international data plan enabled and that allows unlimited data to be pushed through a particular countries GPRS network. Blackberry doesn't have their own "data" networks.

Boy is the IPOD a major ripoff for international data. I don't know why someone wouldn't go with a BB from T-Mobile or Cingular (or Verizon / Sprint 8830 for that matter).
