but your friend will be locked in to a 2 year contract unless she jailbreaks it and goes with another carrier.
Why would his friend be locked into a contract?

I mean, if they did, then if you lost your blackberry, you would be forced to buy only a new blackberry...doesn't sound right.
If you lost it after some time, I'm sure they'd be willing to change you from one plan to another. But if you change back to the BB plan shortly after getting a new iPhone, they might not allow it.
Plus, even though the plans may cost the same amount, they might enable you for access to different services. For example, I believe BB requires access to some sort of server run by BB or the mobile provider in order to get email.
