fellas, this may seem to be a silly question but i rather be safe than sorry. i am going to be in the US later this month and i had planned to take my BB solely to use BB chat, however would i need to have roaming activated by TSTT and would i have to pay data/roaming charges for using only bb chat?

no charges for roaming and using bbm chat, however with data turned on you might get emails and that is when roaming data charges apply - very pricey

so my advice get the roaming, when you land delete your email accts

I hear when he gets shut down by eurogirl he gets very upset and tries to prove himself. If only his wife would pick up his phone and read the logs like everyone else.

i was asking this same thing in tstt yesterday though,

wanted to know if bbm would work in hong kong and shenzhen on tstt roaming

tstt rep said something about $1 per kilobyte even when using bbm


I need some GOOD definite advice (something that tstt can't seem to give)

If I go sign up for a blackberry postpaid plan, (just for BBM use)
What should I sign up for? I just need to be able to use BBM while in China, nothing else, no emails/no browsing anything.

[tr1ad]

if is just bbm yuh want - which will work in hong kong - already tested lol
take a 5mb package.....
just avoid the data use - email fb

[Chimera]

I trying to find out how easy it is to get a prepaid dataplan from a chinese provider , cuz i going for almost 2 months.

cjruckus does rel read mi ph ..

[Gem_in_i]

Does TT have a mobile view?

[Stephon.]

i got the 9800 for 200us unlocked brand new from at&t lol so yay me!

the phone works good..i havent had any issues..i would say the signal is much much better and gets better service than the 9700 an i loved my 9700.. only problems im having is deciding when to use the keypad or the touch screen..

the phone is a bit on the heavy side like really noticeably heavier...its the same size as the 9700 when its closed..all the apps ive used have transfered across to it an works no problem.. browsing is a really really big improvement and the search function works really good as well..
its a big improvement on the storm2 touch screen.. the keys on the 9800 is a bit stiffer an isnt as clacky as the 9700...

bottom line im happy with the phone none the less..

u sir are the person that i have witnessed to say the torch is NOT sheit

And the person who got the phone from ATT for 200us tax free .. rofl

[Chimera]

interesting that he got it for 200 US unlocked

If you paid $200 us for it, it means it was on contract.

On unlocking it, the warranty was voided,(but still tied to contract)

375 US to break contract before contract period expires (-$10 us for every month of contract that was fulfilled)

RIM introduces PlayBook -- the BlackBerry tablet



Today at Research In Motion's developer event, Mike Lazaridis introduced the company's new tablet -- the PlayBook. The device will sport a Cortex A9, 1GHz dual-core CPU, 1GB of RAM, a 7-inch display, webOS-like app switching, an e-reader component, full document editing, and pairing with BlackBerry phones. The device will be capable of 1080p HDMI video and will have HDMI and USB ports, a front and rear HD camera configuration, and will be 9.7mm thick. The PlayBook is based on a platform designed by QNX, just as we'd heard previously.

The PlayBook will have full OpenGL and POSIX support, and RIM seems to have its eye set firmly on capturing a gamer market. Lazaridis called it "the first professional tablet," and "an amplified view of what's already on your BlackBerry." The device will connect via Bluetooth to BlackBerry devices, though the content is cached only temporarily on the PlayBook.

[ESS]

To be released early 2011 I was hoping it would be released before Christmas.

[Stephon.]

Got a new bb, but when I try to set up email, something about "existing member" comes up with this.

"if you want to access your email settings or you changed your device log in"

And is asking for a username and password, and no matter what I enter, they say username blank, or something like that.

wat do?

[tr1ad]

[Stephon.]

Yeah I think I did everything possible, including wipe and all that extra stuff, I'm going into b mobile tomorrow.
