    I was wondering will bbm work on a international sim card or do you need the data plan. Im going to mexico in 3 weeks and I have a unlocked 9630 and would like to save money using a pre paid sim card but I need to use bbm. So my question is will it work with out the Blackberry data plan.

    BBM uses data.. so if the sim does not support data then no it won't work.

    Alerio, you have to go ask the Cell company in Mexico to see if they will give you a pre paid plan for data. I had luck in Argentina with that. Hope you have the same!

    If you're going on vacation, leave your BB at home! I don't think anyone "needs" to use BBM.

    Have you spoken with your provider and found out what their international rates are?
