    This is what I was told:

    The Nextel rep told me that in order for me to use my current sim (that's in my i265) in my BB7520 (where I currently have my Boost sim) I would have to get the BB plan. That makes no sense to me because the plan I have includes the Data Ulimate Pack and I'm not interested in using the push email neither. From what I gather, as soon as the Nextel sim is in the BB, the service is automatically added on your plan

    The BB isn't a paperweight if you don't have the services on it. It's a capable PIM, the keyboard is nice for sms use and the built-in GPS (on the 7520) is excellent for the screen.

    Does anyone know where there are free games to install on a blackberry 7290? There is no way I'm paying 15 dollars for a tiny java game.

    Jada without Will; thats good but I agree with the other post that I do not feel that I need to pay nextel and RIM to get text messaging to work. The best part of the blackberry is the fact that it is a PDA and a phone- sync to outlook contacts, sync to notes, syncs to calendar, syncs to tasks, memopad, pictures, and java programs. I see countless people that have a PDA in the pocket and a cell phone on the belt but you have to laugh- thats what a blackberry is for.

    I recentally lost my 7520 and had to buy a 7100i but now I cannot get text messaging- Does anyone have a fix for this???

    I agree the blackberry is a large paperwieght with out the blackberry part! I have seen people buy it just for the bluetooth but now you have the i870 and i605.

    Depends on which BB you buy. The 7520 only accepts incoming SMS and you can only send out via email. The 7100i on the other hand sends and receives Text Messages via MMS and 100 are included with your BB plan. Hope that helps.

    you can use it on your own plan... but the blackberry features like email and web browser may not work.

    If anyone here owns a blackberry does it require the blackberry data plan to operate or can I use my exisiting free 300 Incoming plan?
