With one or two exceptions (BT
& 3), RIM BlackBerry phones are available from all of the UK's major mobile
phone network providers and as BlackBerry smartphones have grown in popularity,
so the number of available handsets has increased. Since the early days, when
BlackBerry handsets looked anything less than sophisticated, the latest
BlackBerry smartphones are amongst the most stylish and feature packed mobile
phones on the the market. Whilst the very latest BlackBerry, the BlackBerry
Storm is only available via Vodafone in the UK, the other recently released
handsets (BlackBerry Bold, BlackBerry Curve and BlackBerry Pearl) are available
with all of the major providers and with some features limited to specific
providers.

Whilst T-Mobile has a limited
BlackBerry offering (BlackBerry Pearl &
BlackBerry Curve), it does have one of
the most robust mobile networks in the UK and is known for it's excellent
coverage.
As with most of the other BlackBerry providers, T-Mobile
BlackBerry contracts are for 12 or 18 months and whilst generally there is a
charge for data (email / internet), T-Mobile usually have on a offer a number
of 'free internet' options on their 18 month BlackBerry contracts. In either
case, it would be advisable for T-Mobile BlackBerry users to check the small
print and potential for extra data charges, which could easily add an extra
£1 per day to overall charges.
