Idea, Aircel, Tata Docomo announce plans for BlackBerry Z10

There is still lot of confusion about BlackBerry 10 special plans offered by operators.

Soon after the launch of BlackBerry Z10, Idea and Aircel have announced special plans for the BlackBerry 10 operating system based handset.

BlackBerry phones, unlike any other smartphone, require operator services (who offer it with special plans) to perform all communication related functions. You can’t access mail, chat (BBM) etc on a normal data plan. However, BlackBerry 10 operating system based devices do not require any specific data plan for emails, browsing or BBM. A regular Internet plan will work on the new smartphone. Business Today, quoting its sources in BlackBerry, also said that all existing data plans offered by carriers will also work on the Z10.
