    the internet on the blackberry only work on the wifi setting that what it mean. you cant use on 3g because it not program that way on the that blackberry

    wifi that come from household/hotspot area.

    3g is from the cellphone towers

    There are packages given by your service provider.Some offer just BBM,some offer all Messenging services such as FB,MSN,BBM and Twitter and some offer Internet services.
    I go for the cheapest,just BBM.

    You buy a Sim card where you pay each month for so called BB internet, it gives you access to everything, BBM windows live, twitter, internet browsing, unlimited usage, here in europe it costs like 10 euro/month, depending on where you live, but you can basically get it in any country.
