I wish to clear some of my doubts on Black Berrys..
Why cant we use the QL, sometime, for a class, by some of the Experts here.

1.I have a Mobile connection from QTel and I use
Nokia 6300. If I purchase Black Berrys, can I use the
same ?

2. What are the highlights of a Black Berry.. A lot of
hype heard..But dont know what it can do ?

connection ?

Blackberry Phones are just like other mobile phones and use the Same SIM. What makes them special is the Blackberry Service which has to be subscribed. This Service provides a channel to send receive emails (Push technology) and chat. Other Mobiles also can send and receive emails, but they need a data Channel which could be either GPRS, 3G, or WIFI.

You will have to pay a Blackberry service activation fee which is about QR150. Then each month you pay a Q-Tel Blackberry subscription which is about QR125.

This is in addition to the cost of the device itself.

BB is a PDA with mobile feature added in.

Nokia E series is a mobile phone with PDA features added in.

They both allow you to access your email from your phone easier than other methods.

QTel is promoting BB as an entertainment/business phone, even though it's used worldwide as a business phone 99% of the time.
