BB and BBM problems on Orange France (paris)

[fuscle]

first time poster

Have an unlocked BB Bold 9700 which have always used in NYC and am in Paris for a couple of months, i have the payg mobicarte sim card but from what ive asked at the store they dont have bbm plan (except on subscription)

can anyone advise me on what to do,,,,basically i just need to get mail and use bbm
is there an internet plan that will suffice

On a related subject for some reason ever since getting here i cant even get bb to work using my home (paris) wifi...i've been thru all the posts and i think its down to fact that my host routing table is empty (?) and altho ive sent requests its not populated...so basically i get the greyed out wifi symbol and (-) next to the name

thank you

You need to find another carrier that has BlackBerry Data available and get a SIM card from them.
