    apparently not. but you can still receive calls and text even when you dont have 'edge' or 3g connection, so not sure why you put that in there.

    Just tell your cell provider to turn off internet to your number.I also have a iphone with no data plan and if i try to go on the internet other than on wifi it says error no data network.You will just have to hook up to a wifi to get your e-mails and etc.
