    The math works out but I wouldn't call Social Blackberry a data plan. Data implies some sort of web browsing.

    This would be sweet. The only thing is...what's really considered a dumbphone these days? Like to me, when I look at WINDs lineup, the only smartphone I see is the Blackberry 9700 and the Maple, I consider the other two dumbphones..

    May be it is unlimited mobile browser for $10 (anyphones)
    However to avoid abuse, the will do the same as the unlimited data but at 2 gb.

    If they come out with that add on....I think it completes their line up and they have listened again!!

    And I would sign up with all my three phones even if I am out of the home zone...dont mind paying a bit extra for roaming.
    Wind at your service! I dont work for Wind either!

    That not possible. Nobody would get the Infinite Data plan then. They're not going to do that.

    I am actually thinking really hard about getting this bundle for the BB with Wind. Are a lot of other people getting this too? If I had access to unlimited texting, facebook msn messanger and BBM, I would be able to get about 80% of my communication done right then and there. I think 100 minutes may be too little for me but if I extensively use the unlimited texting and social blackberry, I may just be able to make it work. I have a pay as you go phone that I will maintain anyways so if I run out of minutes early, I would not be left out in the dark.

    It's only $0.10/min when you go over your minutes on wind, so with $10, you could get another 100 minutes. It's not bad considering Roger's $10 pay as you go plan charges $40/min.

    I'm with you 100% -- I don't actually make a lot of calls, but I text and would bbm constantly. 15+5+10 makes the most sense to me although in a perfect world, I would want an actual data plan of 500 mb. But I cannot justify 15+5+35 when I have a laptop and itouch both with wifi. To me the voice plans are fair, the bb add-ons are too extreme and there is no middle ground for the average user.

    lol how ironic 15+5+10 is perfect for me as well athough i don't mind a little data like maybe 500mb - 1gig or something for a little more money. 100 minutes is more than enough for me since i don't "talk" i usually texts and use bbm to communicate hehhe
    200 mins + 50 bonus mins | unlimited evenings & weekends | unlimited network calling + LD | retention value pack | 6gb data |
    $20 + $5 + $10 + $30 + saf + eaf = $72.70 - monthly credits $31.95 = $40.75 before tax
