BPL mobile adds BlackBerry services in its loop. It has launched the new BlackBerry Curve 8300 along with BlackBerry services. The handset is priced at Rs. 24,990 and for the service there are two tariff plans.

The first plan offers 500 Kb of free data usage at a monthly rental of Rs. 499 with 10p per Kb charge for extra usage. The second plan offers unlimited data usage at Rs. 999 per month. The biggest disadvantage according to us is that the handset cannot be used as a modem i.e. it cannot be used to access internet on any computer.
