Besides my 9700, I don't have a back up BB device; however, I do have an old feature phone. When I go jogging, I have not been bring my phone with me because the it will flop around in my pocket but my old feature is a lot smaller and lighter, so it wouldn't mind it as much. While I'm not expecting to have the BB feature on my old phone, will I be able to make phone calls with it?
EDIT: I should add that my old feature phone is with my parents whom are no longer use it, so it's not something I can currently test .
As long as the phone has a slot for the sim card, and is with the same carrier, then Yes it would work. I swap between my 9810 and samsung phone constantly.
As long as the phone has a slot for the SIM card, and is with the same carrier, or is an unlocked GSM device with the proper bands, then Yes it would work.
