Default Where can I buy and get service for a 9670?

I've been looking for a phone, I badly need an upgrade and I found the Style 9670. It's nearly exactly what I wanted and need, but both my mom and I have been issues finding it any where since it's been discontinued.

Can it still be purchased? If so, which carrier would provide service for it?

Boost Mobile provides service for the Style. Check EBay they have plenty of Boost Mobile Styles available.

So, to be perfectly clear. If I buy the phone on Ebay and then call Boost Mobile, they'll provide service? Sorry, I've never really dealt with all this before. Pretty sure my old phone is a pay-as-you-go one with AT&T.

We looked on Sprint, but Mom said they didn't have it anymore. I suggested to call and ask if they'd provide service, but we haven't gotten that far yet.

Yes if you get a Boost Mobile Style on EBay then you shouldn't have a problem at all.

Contact them if you have further questions

You can sometimes find them on craigslist, I've seen several of them for sale, and I'm still ticked at getting hung up and missing the one I found for $40 a couple of weeks ago. Prices will vary, though. It would have been nice to have a spare.

There weren't many parts made for the Style. It was treated like the red-headed stepchild of the Blackberry family. Vendors refused to make an extended battery and I haven't seen housings or anything like that anywhere.

Lol @ the red headed step child. I titled a forum thread exactly that in the 9670 forum.

Its a shame too because I fell in love with the flip berry and I still love it. Worse comes to worse ill buy a broken one of eBay for parts.
