Best Cell Phone Service for GPRS?

hojo asks: "I have a Palm Tungsten T and I'd like to start using it for (limited) wireless web browsing. It has Bluetooth support and will work with GPRS cell service. Alltel, my current cell provider, doesn't support GPRS so I want to switch to another plan. What cell phone service plans are there that you have used or know about that will work to allow me to use my Palm and preferably a Bluetooth phone for some on-the-road lookup? My only other issue is I'm trying to keep the cost less than $100/month."

    When can I get a GSM phone that'll work over here? I'm sick of paying for the devleopment of a new, proprietary, single-carrier network each year. Time to join the 20th century and go GSM.

    Wait, I don't even use a cell phone. My time is too valuable to me.
