With Android you don't need any additional subscription on top of data service in order to get your eMails pushed (at least through GMail) and besides that there's even a Skype app. You can go to any country, get a local SIM with data service and access the internet.
The requirement to get a BIS subscription in order to use a Blackberry device is just one out of many reasons why I dislike Blackberries.

yeah, damn, Google Maps would have been extremely useful to have.
