Blackberry sim question.

Hope this isn't a daft question, but will the sim card that comes with my new Blackberry Storm 2 be specific to use only in a Blackberry or can it be used in an iPhone for example ?

Thanks

Re: Blackberry sim question.

The sim card that comes with Blackberry has the blackberry internet package.
Therefore I think it cannot use in iphone.
You have to call up your operator that you want to cancel the blackberry service and change to normal internet service.
Therefore you can use it in iphone

Hope that helps.
Thanks

Re: Blackberry sim question.

It's not incorrect, it's just a little misleading since the OP didn't ask about data bundles.

Which it can without actually having any settings on the account changed, sure you may want to remove BIS but that wasn't the question.
