Hi I asked at the Turkcell kiosk in Lemar if I could get internet on my Blackberry but the answer was a resounding 'no'.
Does anyone know any different I was wondering if it would be worth going to their main shop. Thanks

I am not expert on Blackberry, never owned one, but;
I think you should be able to configure regular Internet subscription into a BB phone, it will just have a few limitations, such as not being able to use App World, Blackberry Messenger, GPS etc...

In order to use all these services, you need a special BIS account, which I think does not exist here.

by 'regular Internet subscription', I meant 3g service from Turkcell.

As far as I know mobile providers need to sell special blackberry Internet packages for you to use your blackberry to its full extend.

Because this package does not exist in N.Cyprus, I thin this is why you got the 'no' answer from Turkcell.

What I am saying is that, it looks like there is a way to configure a 'regular Turkcell 3g' package to work on blackberry, just some functions wont work.

I am trying to answer your question, not to sell you Multimax

hope its more clear now...
