My apologies if i am posting this in a wrong place. I don't own a blackberry but i am planning to buy a Storm 2. The problem is, i am with AT&T, so i thought i will get it from ebay or get it unlocked. But i have read that an unlocked storm 2 is not compatible with AT&T and you cannot access all the features of the phone with it.
Does anyone here own an unlocked storm 2 who could give insight into it?
Any comments on this would be appreciated.
You will not be able to get 3G on a Storm2 on AT&T. The best you will get is EDGE. Therefore, simultaneously voice/data will not be possible unless you use Wi-Fi for the data.
All other features will work if you have a BlackBerry data plan (BIS).
Thanks for the reply. So, there is no way for getting 3G? I mean any fix that works? Isn't EDGE painfully slow? :|
Guess i will have to look at some other smart phone then. :s

No fix, the storm 2 only has the 2100mhz gsm 3g bands, which only work overseas.
I'd suggest the 9700 for AT&T. Just don't buy a T-Mobile branded device. T-Mobile and AT&T use different 3G bands, so you won't get 3G on AT&T with a T-Mobile 9700.
