Internet on Blackberry?

Hi, I am new to Qatar and my residency process is still in process (I will get it hopefully in 2 weeks time). I am thinking of buying Blackberry. Can I access internet on it using QTel service or via some other provider? Keep in mind that I do not have residency permit yet. Is there any other way to access internet at home without having resident permit, such as buying USB internet, mobile internet, etc? Please respond. Kind Regards.

Hi!

Here is the overview of the tariffs. You can either go for a USB stick or the MiFi device. MiFi has advantage if you want to share the connection with more devices or users (e.g. Laptop, iPod, PSP etc.).

Thanks for the help harrisonk. Can I connect the USB on my computer and access internet or just on the mobile phone? Also can you tell me if QTel or other providers give this service, and what are the rates? Regards.
