    hello CB. In currently taking a short trip up to Canada and bringing my unlocked storm as the thread indicates. I was just curious if anyone on CB could tell me how I can cheaply use data while in Canada. I would love to still use bbm but not rack up an enormous phone bill. Thanks in advance.

    If its unlocked maybe get a local sim card on a carrier that supports BB, see if they may even do prepaid

    To use BlackBerry Messenger you need a BIS plan - and I don't believe there is a prepaid BlackBerry data provider in Canada. Even if there was, your phone is already registered on a BIS with your current provider and it isn't so easy to switch back and forth.

    If all you're using is BBM, your data usage will be minimal.

    Thanks for the input. I forgot that bis accounts are registered by the provider
