I'm still sorely disappointed that it is coming to Verizon as an exclusive device. 900 minutes, 500 text messages and "unlimited" data and no tethering for $119.99 a month? ($149.99 with tethering) They must be out of their minds.

I have TMO with 1000 minutes, unlimited data, tethering, 500 text messages, 500 MMS and UMA capability all for $80 a month. Verizon may have a much broader network than TMO, but their customer service is a nightmare.

If the 9530 would only come to the US...

you should really check your sources before trying to make a point:

VZW:
900 minutes (incl unlim VZW-VZW, unlim N&W) = 59.99
500 text (incl unlim VZW-VZW) = 10.00
BES (corporate email access) = 44.99
TOTAL = 114.98

if you only need web-based email service, you can cut the data plan by $15... BIS = 29.99

TOTAL = 99.98/month

T-Mo:
1000 "Whenever" minutes (unlim N&W only... *no* unlim TMO-TMO) = 59.99
1000 txt (does not incl unlim TMO-TMO) = 9.99
blackberry unlimited = 39.99
TOTAL = 109.97

I fail to see your big savings, Eric.
