    Most bb people only have one email address anyway and some only got email when they got a bb so I can really see this becoming popular especially with the youth.

    The R27 offer would probably be popular with new entrants and the R37 with people that dont want to change their existing single email address.

    N.B just thought of something for people like me with more than one email address,let all your mail boxes sync into gmail and use that as your primary single address...when sending from gmail it allows you to choose which mailbox to send from also.

    Ive been doing it for years and gmail handles it very very well

    I will be changing to the R27 option as i use another device for Gmail etc. Saving nearly 50% on the BB service feels good

    Now where is that damn contract options supposed to be announced today

    Yeah. Cell C's equivalent to that offer is R37/month (includes one web mail account).

    Heh. Well these deals are getting a push from RIM SA. Tech journos around the country got a bag with three Bar Ones in them: small, medium and large.

    The payoff line on the included pamphlet reads: "The new BlackBerry plans... guaranteed to satisfy everyone, whatever their tastes."

    Gotta love competition.

    I am very tempted to get one when my contract expires.
    I can set forwarding in gmail to that blackberry mail. Will work out well.
    Only issue is my twitter feel tweeters I follow always have links to external sites in their tweets. Blocking external sites will then not make sense for my twitter use.

    it would be interesting to see if Vodacom and mtn jump on this as well.

    They'd be foolish not to.

    Nice one Cell-C, beating 8ta on Price as well. Just need someone from Cell-C to clarify, can one use a gmail account.
    It seem from the article that it only allows a username@cellc.blackberry.com email address - is this correct?

    With 8ta u can use 1 web based email for R30. I think 8ta has a better deal. You can have 1 web based email plus 1 blackberry email.
