Using ATT Blackberry Bold 9700 in the UK

[airportis]

I will be traveling to England next month and am wondering what I need to do to be able to use my Blackberry Bold 9700 (ATT service provider) while I am there.

I definitely want to be able to call, send text messages, and most importantly, be able to use Blackberry messenger.

What do I need to do?

Hey you can have blackberry pay as you go. If you are traveling for a month it may be very usefull. or just unlock your mobile so that use any sim card of other company.

well, if you want to keep your number you can call AT&T and ask them to activate it for your visit in the UK.

but better for you if you want to save money is to use a local UK sim card in your blackberry... just remember that you need to unlock your device to work with other carriers if it's not unlocked.
