Should be possible. Just make sure you set up your WiFi connection properly and set your browser to "Hot Spot Browser" by opening the browser then menu button-options-browser configuration- then select Hot Spot Browser. Have fun!

i think without a data plan the browser icon won't be pushed to the device...you need to put a sim card with a data plan then get the browser icon pushed to your device and than you could start surfing on wi-fi....
No, it doesn't even need to be unlocked, you don't even need a SIM card in there to get to the browser. By default the browser is there, and only when you insert a sim card without a data package that the browser gets taken away.
Yes you can use WiFi on the phone without a data plan. You can even use it with no SIM card. The functionality will be similar to an iPod touch and its limited abilities.
I had a Rogers BB 8900 and before I even popped in my SIM, I hopped onto Wifi and surfed around, works fine. You obviously won't get push email, or any BIS services.
I don't see how everybody's been able to surf the net on wifi...without any data plan. I have tried and tried but nothing. There is a hotspot close by and I tried it there..nothing.
How are you guys doing it I wanna know....need help!
TIA
