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?

How (or where in London) can I unlock a (Rogers) Blackberry Pearl?
I bought a Blackberry Pearl in Canada which is locked into one of their networks called Rogers.
I live in London and would like to use the phone with my T-Mobile simcard!
Is it possible to unlock the phone myself, or are there any shops anywhere in London (Zones 1-2) that can do this for me??
Thanks for any help!
