This simple hack enables Blackberry default browser to use a normal internet plan instead of a costly data plan or enables the browser for those who don't have a data plan. All you require is to get a cheaper normal GPRS/3G plan and configure the TCP/IP option in your blackberry.
This hack in no way will affect your Push-mail and messaging service sand you can always revert to the previous state easily too. So the following people are benefited with this hack:
> For all those using blackberry without a data plan, they cannot access or use the default blackberry browser.
> Without access to the browser they wont be able to do an OTA install of apps or install the Blackberry 'AppWorld'.
> In some countries, the Blackberry Data plan is very costly. So using it to download apps and browsing will burn their pockets. These people will be benefited if they could access Browser using normal GPRS/3G plan which is way cheaper.
