Blackberry help..

[399out]

Right i am on dolphin 25 with orange..

I was thinking about buying an unlocked blackberry to use my orange sim in..

I was just wondering what the disadvantages of this would be.. Things like the free internet? And also what is the blackberry pin?...

Much help is appreciated. Thanks.

From what I've just read of the D25 tariff, it does not include data. On that basis, the BB handset would just be a (very flash) phone in your case. Depending on where you are in your current contract, you might be better off speaking to Orange about upgrading to a BB tariff and having them supply the handset - an unlocked BB is going to be well into the hundreds, whereas a BB from Orange in contract will be a lot less.

Most of the Orange BB contracts include "unlimited" data - so all your e-mail and mobile surfing will be inclusive.

The PIN is a unique ID for each BB handset - it has various uses; if you phone Orange for help they may ask for it in order to send data to the HS. Another is the BB version of IM - each user links up using their BB PIN.
