Welcome to the forums.

You will need a BlackBerry data plan.

What do I need a Data Plan for? - BlackBerryFAQ

thanks for the quick reply. How do i get a blackberry data plan?

You would need to contact your carrier (Vodafone).

im on pay as you go does this only apply to contract.

I believe so. You may want to check with Vodafone to be sure.

ok another question.

how i change the browser to blackberry browser as currently its only got hotspot browser

You won't be able to until you have a BlackBerry data plan.

well vodafone dont have any information listed on there website about blackberry data plans.

^^^ This FAQ (that I can't even link to o.O) says you can't use the internet at all without a Data plan, however I don't have one and I can browse the web just fine with the Hotspot browser when I'm connected to WiFi.

However, I can't use AIM over WiFi and this really irritates me..

Yes, you can browse over WiFi, however, did you read the OP's original question?

That's why I posted the FAQ.
