Blackberry vs. Data Connect

I'm currently with Sprint, but I'm planning to switch as soon as I can
figure out what I need. Could someone please tell me the difference between
the Blackberry 4 MB optional add-on and the Data Connect 5 MB add-ons?

Do the Data Connect add-ons work with the Blackberry or just with camera
phones? I would like to be able to get my e-mail on the road, but I would
like to respond on a QWERTY keyboard. I assume this would require getting a
Blackberry. I'm not on the road a great deal; but, when I am, I would need
to check e-mail up to a half dozen times a day. Also, I would really prefer
not to hunt and peck on a regular phone keypad.

Any feedback would be very much appreciated.

Thanks for your feedback. I tried talking with a couple of Cingular store
reps, but they really didn't seem as if they had an inkling as to what they
were talking about. Hopefully, when I try to place my order, I'll have
better luck.

Thanks!

Don't switch. If you can have a blackberry with service from another
company you are satisfied with, do it. I was with SunCom for four years
prior to the merger. NO dropped calls. I stayed with Cingular after the
merger and bought a Blackberry. COUNTLESS dropped calls. Very dissatisfied
with the service. LOVE the Blackberry.

Thanks for your feedback. I did place the order to switch my voice provider
to Cingular, but I held up on ordering the data line. Thanks, again!
