Using BlackBerry 7230 as a modem
I'm looking into getting my first BlackBerry this month, the 7320 from TMobile with the "Unlimited data" plan.
2 ?'s:
1. Can I use the BB as a modem (via GPRS) for my laptop?
2. Is this included in the unlimited data?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

1. No. Blackberry have been slow in allowing any of their devices to be used as a modem.
2. Probably. I haven't yet seen a GPRS unlimited data plan without some sort of fair usage policy though (for a UK Blackberry on the unlimited plan, this is 50 megabytes).
Hope this helps.
