nsquark, you're completely confusing two different concepts.
The carrier can put different types of data plans on a user account. There's typically a Blackberry "Personal" Data Plan (BIS) and a Blackberry "Enterprise" Data Plan. (BES)
If the user has a BIS data plan on their account... then the device cannot be activated on a BES.
If the user has a BES data plan on their account, then they can activate the device on a BES, as well as utilize BIS functionality.
You stated that RIM doesn't discourage it but you also stated that it typically can't be done. This seems contradictory to me.
It's seems contradictory because you're misunderstanding what is being said here.
A user can have BIS and BES active on a device with no problems at all... but only if they have BES data plan. If the user has a BIS data plan, then they probably can't activate on a BES at all.
