    Will I be able to buy a curve 8520 on orange pay as you go and put my Dolphin 15 3G sim in it, and pay the extra �5 a month for 500MB internet access? I'm worried the internet service wont work as I am using a 3G sim in an edge sim?
    Thanks

    the 3g sim card wont make any difference, it will just work on edge / 2g.

    its not the �5 internet access you want its the �5 blackberry internet service you want, it cant be selected from your myaccount feature and has to be selected by an orange operator.

    i've just upgraded about 5 8520's for users and at least one of them had a 3g sim. just for reference you can do it the other way round as well 3g phone 2g sim card, only difference is when it starts up it logs on to 3g, realises its not a 3g sim card and go's to sos until it then finds a 2g signal, only really delays using it by 5-10 seconds.

    TinyK is right, it'll work just fine (you can always set it to 2G only in mobile settings if your worried) and you will need the BIS service for �5 per month.
