it when you get back (unless you gave them a stop date when you turned it on.)

Well for my needs there is no point in using it, as I won't be saving much by having just e-mail be 'included' as even images within the messages don't count as those aren't pushed. HTML alone is not a whole lot of data unless you have say hundreds of e-mails being pushed to the phone daily. Web surfing and instant messaging take up more bandwidth due to overhead and images with the case of web pages.
CallInEurope offers a BlackBerry option but it's pretty expensive (something like 3$/day) for anything over a week just in the country your SIM is assigned to and I think it doesn't include non-BIS data, so that would be charged extra at the usual high roaming rates.
