All American carriers have data plans that come with Unlimited Data & BIS (Blackberry Internet Service) packaged in. Usually an additional $20 a month on top of your voice plan.
The Blackberry DOES handle IMAP/Pop3 and you can apply filters to them. On top of that you get the luxury of INSTANT Push E-Mail that only the Blackberry offers. Other companies might claim true push e-mail but they are light years behind what RIM has.
I like to take my Pop3 mail, filter it and forward the most important to my Blackberry.net email which essentially provides me with instant Pop3 email with no need to pull. Instant POP3 isn't possible on any other device.
So the only advantage I see in getting the Blackberry is E-Mail. E-Mail is what makes it the industry standard for most major corporations...it's what makes the Blackberry a Crackberry.
