I have this phone on the orange network. This phone is fantastic, it has a messenger which allows you send messages and pictures to other blackberry users for free.

Only problem that I had is that when I got this phone the internet would not work. Although as part of my contract with Orange I had unlimited mobile internet, Orange told me that I needed to pay an additional 5 pounds a month as blackberry uses a different type of internet to normal phones. It is connected all the time to allow emails to be recieved where as normal phones have to connect once you request it. This 'add on' included unlimited texts which is something to keep in mind if looking at it for a contract phone.

I am currently a t-mobile customer and my current price plan is unlimited texts and 500 minutes. I currently have an lg cookie and hate it with a vengeance. can anyone tell me if i buy this phone and put my existing t-mobile sim card in it will the price plan and everything like that apply to the phone and will it work ok?

Ive heard from many people about the blackberrys and that they are a good make of phone..

Although i too have heard various rumours about the internet bundle! eg: if your a new tombile customer the first 6/12 months of internet is FREE?...i dunno if this is only with carphone wearhouse? but its not stated here...and i assumed this is a deal that comes with ALL blackberrys isit possibly play.com could inform buyers if that deal applies here too...or isit only given depending on where you buy it.

Thanks!
