With that said i dont know anything about unlocking BB or how well they work since you are using a device from a different carrier than the one you have(when using a unlocked bb).
I been with sprint for a long time now and i really dont wanna change carriers just because i want a phone that they dont carry.
I havent decided if i wanna go touch screen with the storm or trackball with the bold. but i definetly want one of them.
So i was thinking of buying whichever i decide to buy and unlock it or buy it already unlocked but i wanted some feedback from people who have done this before.
When deciding, also consider coverage. That's why I joined Sprint. In my commuting area Sprint gives me the best coverage. And the 8330 has all the features I need.
