Going from Non Smartphone to Blackberry

[flatlined]

I was thinking of giving my girlfriend my old Blackberry Curve. Her Razor has seen better days. If I put her SIM in will AT&T automatically add a data plan or just tell me it needs one and I have to add it? She does not want internet, she just wants to use it for phone and text.

Does AT&T Really add a data plan right away after you put a SIM from a Non Smartphone to a Blackberry?

Thanks

Yes, you can still use it as a Phone and for Texting just fine. Make sure to turn off Data Services OFF. I am not positive, but I think you will get charged by the byte if you use Data Services without a plan. If it has WiFi, some things will work, but not all.

Use a T-Mobile BlackBerry then. You don't use a smartphone for text messaging; there are scads of messaging phones with no data requirement.
