which carrier for blackberry?

I'm looking to open a new business line, but I'm not sure as to which carrier is best suited for the blackberry. I was looking at the 8703e. T-mobile has a great plan for $80/mo and includes minutes as well as unlimited data/email. Sprint/nextel has great free incoming plans which would suit me well as most of my calls would be incoming, but with data, it would come out to about $100/month. Anyhow, are any of the carriers better than the others as far as blackberry's go? Verizon, Sprint, Cingular, or T-Mobile?

The only real difference when it comes to the data service is speed and price. Speed can become an issue if you are streaming content, or browsing the net a lot and price is, well price.

Blackberry service, in terms of email, is not evidently different between companies. I say go with the company that is the cheapest and offers the best speeds

Imho

I work for a global corp, and do a lot of travel in the US. I have had every carrier that exists. IMHO Verizon has the US's best coverage, as well as the best high speed network. All of my employees have 8703e's with verizon. Excellent phone, great service. Verizon is a bit more than the rest but you get what you pay for. We have dedicated units for travel out of the country that use GSM.
