Hi,
Hubby has a blackberry which is now out of contract (Orange).
We want to unlock it and transfer to a pay as you go tariff.

Will this work?
We would prefer to unlock then use my existing PAYG vodafone sim.

I read in another thread that if it is unlocked, the browser will go. If so, would it be preferable to just change to an orange PAYG sim?

Any advice welcome.
How much does it cost to use a blackberry on the internet or email?

Sorry if questions are silly, but I have never used a blackberry myself.

I found this while looking for some info for my mum I have an ex vodafone blackberry she wants want to use on orange....

The BB PAYG Service will launch on Orange UK (Jan 29th)
• BIS Bundle will cost £5 per month
• It will include a fair use limit of 50mb
• You will also be able to use unlocked blackberry phones with the plan
• £5 charge automatically renews every month from whence activated, user will be informed via txt msg 3 days before the due date warning the the charge for BIS will be deducted
• If there is insufficient credit an sms would be sent to customer advising of this, also when customer next tops up £5 will be deducted automatically
• If the user fails to top up the required amount, after 28 days they would need to ring 450 to enable the service once again
• Customers can unsubscribe to the service by texting STOPBB to 247
• The fair use policy isn't a hard cap, so it won't eat into your credit if you go over the 50mb
• Any customer will be eligible for it providing they have a Blackberry handset (though it will not be advertised as such)

not sure if it helps...
