    It's a device used primarily for accessing your email and BASIC web browsing on the move.

    Generally it involves your phone company setting you up a you@phonecompany.com domain and forwarding your various other email accounts to it.

    Usually you can get this for around 20-30 quid a month depending on who you go with.

    http://www.blackberry.com/na/index.shtml is a great resource for it, it's got info on all the blackberrys out there at the moment.

    Yeh, you can use your regular SIM but if you plan on making serious usage of it contact your mobile company and get on a blackberry tarriff!
