PDAxtreme

I used to have an HTC Fuze phone with Windows Mobile 6.I had to replace it through the warranty department with AT&T and I now have the Blackberry Bold.Now,according to AT&T, I cannot access WI-FI without a Blackberry PDA plan with AT&T! I thought WI-FI was free! Are there any free software programs I can download into my phone that will allow me to access WI-FI without paying for anything?Is there a way to access it without anything else.The Blackberry Bold is definately set up differently.Maybe I am just doing something wrong.Can anybody help me with this?Thank you.

He already has a Canon 5D II and feels that the external mic input is just not going to cut it for serious amateur level movie recording. I’m considering buying a 5D II in the next 6 months or so (I already have a good selection of high end Canon glass and an older DSLR) and starting mucking about with making some music videos.

He’s looking at doing small scale commercial movie work. We live on opposite sides of the planet, so we won’t be working together.
