Reliance all other plans are CRAP, pay as you go is just a RIP OFF. Also if you connect it to laptop & run internet its flat 40p minute. don't know what plan they have you on. its called using tethered modem. and you don't need to pay any upfront fee for it, seems you are given wrong plan which is not applicable on BB devices. For my 8330 I've following on my connection. BB Elite plan + Simple PPS plan + Rs.25/month sms pack. As I don't use BB except for excessive mails I don't need its crappy speed browser. I handle more than 500 mails a day. I use my voda USB stick when i need to connect laptop and not at home. I am however 24x7 online using BSNL Broadband when at home. Using Blackberry with laptop is expensive. You''ll need to pay for laptop use(40p/minute) even if you are on 1099 plan. If you want you can call Blackberry customer care *363 and ask them to give you a BB plan. don't say you are on cracked B berry, say I've got a gift from someone. And stay away from Pay as you go type plans, they would give nightmares when you get the bills. Quote:

check if your devices is recognized by DM. if yes back it up asap. | |||

I have access to a 1GbPS link at work, so do all my heavy work there. Also, I have Photon+ for web browsing. So I need the plan for occasional usage only, (mainly GPS and downloading BB applications which I may need). To access Facebook I have to go through Opera Mini. On BB it requires BIS, so cannot be even be downloaded and installed! Swift 30 does not list any network usage charges. Maybe I should call up *222. Having got a cracked set I intend to use it for 2-3 years before going for a proper 'legal' BB. I am quite happy with what I have. The user interface and sms, calling etc. are brilliant. The issue was 9k against 18.5k for the legal Reliance BB. The other option may be once MNP is in and stable, get a cracked legal (or even cracked) GSM BB and then change operators. With MEID coming they may not be able to sustain the system monopoly for long. Also, once 3G is in I expect major rationalisation of connecion charges. Even Anil Ambani will have to see the light.

BHPian ![]() | ![]() Guys, I have the BB 8900 and on the Vodafone BIS 899 plan. Please advice on how to watch streaming media. I tried to watch SL vs India from www.crictime.com and it kept saying please wait till the video loads but even after an hour nothing happned. Is there a way to watch Live streaming media on BB. Downloaded Google maps 4.4, site says has voice navigation but did not get find any options. How does one use the in-built GPS. I need lots of help in the GPS. P.S. I have 6 satellites detected by the internal GPS. |
