I have an 8830 with Verizon and am going to Tokyo next month. Where can I find information on how to use my phone there? I know it has something to do with a sim card and stuff like that but that's as far as I've gotten. Thanks for the help in advance!
It's a given that there are no GSM based networks at all in Japan. Many foreign tourists/business people travelling in Japan find it a whole lot simpler and less expensive to just rent a phone upon arrival at the airport. The process is slick and easy. The CDMA capabilities of your 8830 are no good in Japan either. Still in doubt? Then also read from this 8830 user in and reporting from Japan - http://forums.crackberry.com/f2/bb-8...te-japan-2679/
