QUOTE(mikelanding @ Dec 22 2009, 07:54 PM) 1) Check your phone is sim lock or not Go to Option -> Advance Optio--> sim cards Type MEPD  If your Network is Active or Enable = LOCKED If nextwork is Inactive or Disable mean your phone is unlocked and can use on Malaysia telco.  2) For 8900 model, it will work on all Malaysia telco. So no worry 3) If U have signed BIS package. To know if U have connection to BIS server. Your signal will show BIG CAPITAL LETTER example 3G, EDGE, GPRS Smal letter like 3g, edge, gprs mean U are not yet connection to BIS or Your BIS is not active yet.

Just activate from maxis, if your BIS has been activated, go reboot your bold and then you should see the BIS connected. if you're under maxis, go www.maxis.blackberry.com do your email thingy.

Did the email thingy try www.maxis.blackberry.com
but there's no Welcome to BlackBerry email from the Activation Server. hmmm

QUOTE(MattJ @ Dec 18 2009, 01:53 PM) Typical9, Mind sharing name of shop on 1st floor Lowyat selling Bold 29700 at RM1900 thru' PM. Thanks, Sis Pls put me in the loop too! I'm now waiting (impatiently) to get my hands on a 9700. However the current price still scares me  . BTW my friend just told me she got hers at RM2K in Wisma Sentral this aft. under GT mobile service. Too bad Maxis/Celcom/Digi haven't jump into the 9700 bandwagon.. I'm sure it would be a bit cheaper..

U dont need to go to www.maxis.blackberry.com Just set it up on your bold. Go to Setup Folder --> Email setting Add up to 10 personnel accounts Less hassle and dont need pc + net to do it.

I am planning to get it too, now still on consideration between bold 2 or storm2. Tire with my iPhone 2g 16gb. I also have a 8900 with maxis BIS. Everything is working well.
Going to sell my iPhone and 8900 to get bold2 maybe... I found a seller at ss15 subang jaya, selling 9700 at RM2,000.00 only. With full warranty. If anyone interested, I will provide u the contact number.

I was talking to the guy in Celcom Blue Cube today and he said that they will only be launching BlackBerry Bold 9700 in January and the price is set to be RM2799?!
Whereas, I heard from a colleague that the price is only about RM2400. So, what is the speculation for the price or there has been a confirmed price?
