BlackBerry Pearl question?

[MzeHollyWood]

If i get it prepaid will i have to get a data plan and pay for it each month in order to text, email and web? Or i can just use it pay as you go without paying?

Getting this phone as a prepaid for what you want it to do will cost you a lot. You're better off getting it with the monthly plan. It depends what type of carrier you're dealing with but most likely you will not have to purchase a data plan but like I said it will cost you a lot to use those features.

I know on AT&T you cannot use pay-per-use on blackberrys. You will need to get a data plan in order to use E-mail adn web. Texting doesn't require Internet.
