SmartPhone/iPhone/Blackberry
Are they worth it?
What are the monthly fees?
They seem so snazzy, but I'd also be worried about being SOOO plugged in 24/7.

I got a blackberry pearl just over a month ago. I love it. I think the data plan is $29/month.

it's still not bad! I was thinking it would be like $60+
My cellphone plan is currently not that bad. I'm on a share plan with my mom and FH. Even with unlimited text messaging and taxes, it's only $60 p/p

if I had email on my phone I wouldn't necessarily need the text messaging..I could email to someone's vtext account!
That's not bad at all!

Do you feel you are TOO plugged in though? Like constantly checking email, etc?

What comes with this plan (if you don't mind mind me asking)? Can you still synch your calendar and get emails?
Thanks!!!!!!

Re: SmartPhone/iPhone/Blackberry
I have a Blackberry - $45/month.
I love being able to text and email and have internet access... I try to keep the work emails to a minimum when I'm home.
