Buying a Z30 and using it in Germany. Any thoughts?
Hi!
I will be in the USA for 4 more weeks and while I love my Q10, it is tempting to give the Z30 a try. The cheapest price for a Z30 in Germany is 590 dollars for a new one so I am contemplating whether to get a Z30 through shopblackberry.com. Accessories are exorbitantly high in the states, but 500 bucks is 90 lower than in my home country, not too shabby.
However, several issues exist:
Will the frequency bands work with German carriers (I am with Vodafone Germany over there and think I might switch to Deutsche Telekom)?
What happens in case I need my device serviced? AFAIK, BB does not have a direct German support center anymore. I guess I could send it to the USA, right?
What would happen if the customs guys catch me at the airport with my Z30?
If somebody has some answers to at least one of my questions, I'd highly appreciate it!
