has anyone used EQO on a Blackberry?

[chrismitchell]

My girlfriend has bought a Blackberry without the whole Blackberry contract.. She just has a normal sim card for cheap phone calls overseas from the UK. But we want to add the internet and data to it but not pay monthly contract charges (we like pay as you go).

Can someone explain how the EQO program works. If we get an internet and phone call capable sim card can we use EQO to get internet on the Blackberry? I've looked on the EQO website but its very confusing to me.

Thanks guys

I have not used EQO, but according to their website, your phone already needs an internet connection to be able to use their services.

I thought that might be the case.. just wanted a 2nd pair of eyes to look at it

This is very similar to buying a car without the gasoline. The killer app on a blackberry IS the BB email push function. Without the data contract, that phone is virtually useless.
