Regardless, this is something that is available to anyone using this phone. What most people don't realize is the HTC Touch is a fully featured smartphone. I think Bell doesn't even realize. As long as you don't tether with the phone, any usage seems to billed as "Browsing" on my bill.
EDIT: I'm not sure what you mean by an apn connection. The Internet explorer that I use works with flash and java and I can actually use it to VPN into my work with an added RSA SecureID software key.

You realize that the "on device browsing" plan is meant solely for internet browsing, right?
You have to know that Rogers would love nothing more than to figure out a way to start charging people for their "out of contract" data use. Doesn't it worry you that they obviously know that (if you're averaging 2GB/month) you're not just browsing the internet on your phone, but they aren't stopping you?
They know the details of the plan you've selected. They know that if they ever get around to figuring out how to charge for non-internet-browsing data, they've got you on the hook for x number of months @ an avg of 2GB/mo, with a cost of $0.05/kb.
According to my math, that's a $100,000/mo phone bill.
