Providing email access without that charge would not sit well with BB users, like me, who have already signed up to two year contracts including the BB charge.
We are the same- ipad 3g and blackberry.

It would be nice to not have to pay $40+/month to use 3G though. Can someone direct to a way to use my blackberry 3G account instead, ie tether?

Thanks!
