ive looked into this also for my iPhone.

The only way this can be done on iPhone that ive read of is by getting the screen resolution using javascript, i would imagine this would also work with a blackberry.

That would only tell you the model of phone, not the carrier.

To be honest, unless it's in $_SERVER somewhere buried in the user agent or gateway strings, I doubt it's possible.
