The Bug I described has nothing to do with the settings.... It has to-do with the fact that you stated, that somehow while the Iphone has the Wi-Fi functionality as standalone, the BBY has it tied up to the Mobile functionality.

I never said that your data services setting was set to off. What I'm saying is that the Wi-Fi on the BlackBerry is tied to the data services being available, and the Wi-Fi on the iPhone isn't...and that was the issue that caused the BB not to work while the iPhone did.
When I mentioned the data services setting being set to off, I was talking about manually doing so in a testing scenario to determine when Wi-Fi functionality would work and when it wouldn't.
What I'm thinking is that neither phone had access to data services OR the mobile network (two different things based on the settings in the phone), but since the iPhone doesn't look for its data services to be connected before connecting to the internet via Wi-Fi, it worked. The BlackBerry doesn't depend on the mobile network being connected, but it does check for BB data services to be available before it lets you connect to the internet via Wi-Fi.
Sorry for the long post, just figured I would try to clear up any confusion about what I had posted earlier.
