Hey guys, I need some info on blackberry plans.

Okay first, I did in fact do a search and came up short on the forum...so i exhausted that option...

Secondly, I checked SKT's site, but they only list PDA plans, and when I originally signed up for my phone, they gave me a PDA plan which obviously didnt include BIS and thus i wasnt able to use it...so i called SKT and removed it. ive been using my BB with only text messaging but its annoying because i need data to live! lol

anyway, does someone have a website with accurate info in English?

Is there a dealer that is capable of speaking English (semi-fluently) somewhere on line 2? I know there are tons of dealers in Gangnam, but im not sure if any of them speak english. i was at technomart yesterday, but it didnt work out so well--i came up short..lol

any help is appreciated, i dont want to be stuck with a PDA plan on a blackberry again..lol

You live in Seoul?
If so you don't need to look for open wifi spots. Get yourself a wibro egg (probably with the help of a friend)
I use it for my touch and iti has been working great.

thanks for the suggestion, but blackberries are a little different, u need rim's data package for most of the functions to work, wifi is essentially useless..

I got mine through a dealer at Seolleung station (green line) and they speak English. Their website is www.3kh.co.kr and they have contact numbers on there. I found them really helpful! Good luck.
