Which Blackberry should I choose?

Question

Hello, I am in the market for a new phone. I am looking at either the Blackberry Pearl 8110 or Pearl 8120. I am new to this so I need your expertise. I have read that the 8120 has Wi-Fi and the other does not. I am going with AT&T and am wanting the 450 minutes nation plan with unlimited texting. I do not want to pay for Internet. If I don't subscribe to MediaNet or Internet, can I still get free internet using the Wi-Fi? Or, do they charge you for using the internet even if you have your own Wi-Fi router? Tell me if you need anymore details. Thank you.

Answer 1

Yes, you can use the HotSpot browser on the Pearl 8120 to get Internet access using your Wi-Fi router without a data plan. However, without a MediaNET or BlackBerry data plan you won't be able to send picture messages. Just wanted to note that.
