VZW Plan for Blackberry

So, I have just joined VZW on my dad's account, but with my own plan. As of right now he signed me up for
NATIONWIDE SELECT 450 ANY UNL N&W UNL IN UNL MSG + EMAIL & WEB FOR BLACKBERRY.

Does this give me the same exact thing as
BlackBerry® Nationwide Email & Messaging 450.

I'm a bit confused. Thanks!

Shocked.

I really thought that US Cellular would be the company that VZW purchased and not Alltel. US Cellular has some great coverage in midwest markets like Chicago that would have boosted VZW coverage.


Nonetheless, this will make VZW the premiere carrier in the US. I think it will give phone manufacturers more incentives to create CDMA phones as quick as they do the GSM phones in our country due to the sheer volume that the new VZW will consume. Before you say that both companies already were CDMA, think about the fact that now they will only have to make one type of software for these devices.

I am shocked.

RIP Chad 06/05/08

I dont know about everyone else, but I am excited to see Chad go away.. The commericals were funny, but I will not miss him.

Anyone having any ideas on how they should write Chad off? Should they make a commerical where the wizard makes them one? Or should it be like the Matrix where the test man just touch Chad and he tranforms to Test man

verizon open cell network to any phone device??

Last year I read an article that Verizon was going to allow any phone from any carrier to be with the verizon service. Does anyone have any more information on this, such as when/if this is going to happen?? I have been debating if I am going to stay with verizon(my plan is up in july) or switch to ATT for the Iphone, therefore this statement is quite significant. If anyone has any information on this please post.

Thanks

The truth about rollover (hopefully this will end all discussion)

A lot of VZW people say rollover is a marketing ploy that isn't really benificial and usually counteract it by saying that "the reason why you are rolling over minutes is because you are on the wrong plan. With VZW, we tell you when you are about to go over so you can essentially be on the right plan all the time instead of ATT and their rollover." I understand that arguement. However, that arguement is invalid now because AT&T and VZW have identical plans. Whatever plan you will have on AT&T, you will probably select the same plan on VZW.

Regardless of what plan you are on, you will always have residual minutes at the end of the month. I personally have about 100-200 minutes left at the end of each month on average. We all know its...

Why is verizonwireless called verizonwireless and not ATT?

I think they should change their logo to a blue glob.
