My daughter is in the Peace Corps in Tanzania Africa, she has cell phone service and can use a BB - I was over there just 2 weeks ago, and I went into to the major carrier, they have BB's and plans.
I have a new (reman) BB Pearl 8130 I was on a Sprint network - is this phone useless?

Sprint phones are on a CDMA network, and do not use Sim Cards with exception of the 8830 and 8350i NexTel, which both have SIM capability.

Thanks, so basically, since I am not a Sprint user anymore, I have a useless new phone?

Or post it in our Marketplace Forum. Offset the cost of a World Edition.

Only a totally thrashed BB is useless. There is a thriving market for used ones, especially in good condition.
