It was boguht from Ebay.com so it is fairly obvious it is a US phone. He can't use the returns policy as box is damaged so his only real possibility of getting anything back here is to sell it on again.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

He probably stands a chance at a US air base as an airman can just take it back to the US when they go home.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

It should take a SIM.
Try looking for instructions at www.palm.com.
It may need to be unlocked, if this is possible?
Good luck.0 -
