I have been fantasizing about the Blackberry bold since December, Any idea how much is the fee for internet usage?

Mobile Broadband uses the 3.5G/HSDPA network and matches 3G coverage within QTEL coverage areas only... out of bundle rate is QR 0.1/MB. Speed will vary due to network load, distance from the tower and other factors.

am using NOKIA E-series and it works well with my customize self-installed mobile internet browser, since the display is landscape type, viewing and accessing web address is definitely satisfactory.

whereas if my device detects accesible WLAN, say if am on office, internet mobile access is free of charge.

upon connection, i should to choose which connection i would use, WLAN (which is free) or connection thru GPRS which is charge against my prepaid card load.

so lets say either you are on or off of office, internet is still accessible... so wether you're on southern part to SEALINE PUBLIC BEACH or at the northest tip to AL GHARIYAH... net access need not to worry about, it's just QAR0.1/MB.

I got one from my company - they pick the bill - we have the Blackbery Enterprise Server.

Looking to get the Storm from VF (via contacts) in the near future.

I use a combination of 3G and Wifi to access the internet and it seems fine to me.

how fast is the internet on it, i have two iphones, i have a 3g sim in one, and a normal sim in the other, and i use one of them as a dedicated internet on the go device, it would be great if the blackbery could combine two of the devices into one massive phone, with texting, calling and fast internet capabilities

That's not bad at all actually. I've got the new Bold, I just need to set it up with QTel.

I had a lucid dream about Blackberry and got it last december, SATISFY your communicational desires. I pay £25 aka QR125 for local internet usage alone, unlimited internet and unlimited texts.
