Default GSM to CDMA Phone

Hello all,

I am really interested in the 9670 from Bell. I was going to buy one, but then remembered that it is a CDMA phone. I currently have a 9000 and was wondering if I bought a 9670 Style, would Bell be able to activate it for me using the number I have right now? I want to try out the Style, but if I don't like it, would I be able to go back to using my sim card on my 9000 without any problems?

Yes it is possible for Bell to activate the phone on your current number. They would just deactivate the SIM card and activate their ESN/MEID on their network. And by chance you dislike the phone when you take it back for a buyer's remorse they can just reactivate the SIM.

Just a warning some HSPA plans are not compatible with CDMA, so ask before they finalize the switch, cause if you have a great plan you for sure don't want to lose it
