I just received a free 8830 for attending the promotional launching.
The unit is branded but unlocked.
I checked ADVANCED OPTIONS | SIM CARD <- MEPD and see that it reads 'SIM Card: Security Disabled'
My question is, can I use this BB on other CDMA and/or GSM networks?
I put in a GSM SIM card, manually set GSM mode and the scanned with no luck.
Similarly I put in a CDMA SIM card with the same useless result.
I see that a retailer in the city is selling 8830's and they appear to be both unlocked and unbranded.
Hey I was just curious if say you bought an unlocked Blackberry for a company like Telus or Bell would you be able to use it on the Virgin Mobile Network??
