The tariffs will probably resemble other cellphones that can be used as modems. Also Rogers doesn't care because there's a 25meg softcap in the Unlimited plan that they can decide to enforce if they wish.

I talked to a friend who works at my Blackberry carrier about BlackBerryModem and they seem interested in it. Apparently according to him, many of the others working there didn't know that the feature is being introduced and now they know about it; I've encouraged them to inquire with RIM to make sure they can deploy this feature in a timely manner (OS 4.0? OS 4.1? 7290/7100 specific? Don't know.)
