Hi,

Anybody here with a Blackberry?

Can you answer a couple of questions?

Are IMAP / Gmail accounts supported - i.e. can you connect to Gmail (IMAP) and send / recieve.

Is the above done within the Blackberry "wrapper"?

Some numpty woman at O2 just tried to convince me that regardless of connecting to our home WiFi access point, they would still charge for the data transfer - she called this streaming. I don't think this is streaming in the sense of something like iPlayer, but could this be to do with the collecting the data to and from the BlackBerry server / device at the other end?

And would the same be true for general internet use?
