Can the blackberry use wifi?

Can i use the Wifi On a Blackberry 8120 without a data plan?

  • Basically i wanna buy a Blackberry 8120 and just bung a pay as you go sim card in and use the wifi until my contract runs out then i will go onto a data plan. but can you use the wifi feature on the 8120 with just a pay as you go sim card?

  • Answer:

    You could use the Wi-Fi capabilities of it, but without subscribing to Blackberry Internet Service(BIS), you will not be able to use the built in browser or send and receive picture messages(not sure about text with that model). You can always install Opera Mini with your computer and use the data connection that way. Data will still work, it's just that certain functions of the phone are dependant on "service books" being sent to your device by your provider, which they will not do unless you subscribe to BIS.
