Wi-Fi question

I am interested in the upcoming Blackberry because it may have WiFi. I have not noticed the need for it if I have a data plan, however, if I take my phone to Europe, would WiFi give me internet access in Europe? What about VoIP in Europe using a wifi phone?

The Pearl 2 has EV-DO data, Wi-Fi, stereo Bluetooth and integrated GPS. This makes it a much faster and more capable handset compared to its predecessor"
