I switched to Rogers a couple of years ago for their $10/mo 100 mb real data plan. However, as we know Blackberrys need BIS service to be functional and generic data plans do not make them fully functional.
I just started to use their new $15/mo 100 mb Blackberry data plan and my Blackberry Bold 9790 is FULLY functional now - BBM and all.
Just an FYI.

100 Mb for $15 a month? You do realize how tiny an amount of data that is, wot?

It depends on what you use it for. You can get by rather well if you use something like Opera as a browser. And if you use mostly messaging, 100 MB is practically unlimited as far as you are concerned.
But yeah, it is not much data.

Pretty much. 100mb is just enough for me. Overage is only $0.15/mb anyway.

I used to be on SO UMB for about half a year on my iPhone 4S. UMB crippled the data and I wanted more than just TCP port 80 & 443. iMessage was one of my most used apps which would not work on UMB. I also wanted push notifications for my email that uses port 5523.
So last month I switched to Rogers pay as you go. I use a total of only like 50 MB last month by tweaking some of my apps and turning off stuff that I don't need. The problem is iphone by default wastes lots of data doing useless stuff in the background. I spend some time figuring out those issues and only kept the stuff I need on. So the $10 for 100mb works for me. Added on $5 month for 250 outgoing text and I am set. Have a fully functional iPhone now.
My wife is still on SO because she does not use data and hardly uses her phone for calls or SMS. So the 365 expiry got $25 works well for her.
