If you get an O2 PAYG SIM it will probably work, but you won't get push e-mail.
Most Blackberries only have 2.5G (EDGE), which will give you a maximum of approx 240kit/s. WAP is not a transmission technology and has no speed associated with it.0 -
Usualy you have to subscribe to Instant Email to get Internet access on a Blackberry as it updates the device when connected.
Check with 02 but I think Instant Email is only available on contract.0 -
cheers all you saved me some money0
