Actually, the BB uses only a fraction of the data that the iPhone does - both because it uses data much more efficiently, and because it actually downloads messages to the device while the iPhone doesn't. So if you want to read a message again later on the BB, you don't use more data; on the iPhone whenever you read a message or search through headers, it has to use data again.
