When Vodafone starts selling the touch-screen BlackBerry Storm on December 1, the plans will include a feature that’s common overseas but rare down under: unlimited access to email and Web browsing on the devices, with monthly plans starting from $69.

Nonetheless, it’s a nice change from the complex range of data plans that have characterised the iPhone and other smart phones. Now if only they’d roll the same plan onto the more productive BlackBerry Bold . . .
