My husband wants a Blackberry Pearl for Christmas but doesn’t want to be locked into a contract with any service provider. Can you actually buy a handset with a pay as you go sim whilst still getting the full Blackberry functions and capability. I have searched everywhere on the net and can only find contract options.
Also, if it is possible to purchase just the handset, do you know the cheapest place in Edinburgh to buy one?

I have been given a blackberry without a sim card. Would I be able to use a normal vodafone pay as you go sim card (like you’d get in a mobile phone) to access web and emails on the blackberry, or do I have to buy a special sim card?
