I see charges on our company Sprint account all the time for international text messaging. Also, if you have the $69.99 Worldwide BB data plan, you have to add on the $15 PAM for that to work.
Perhaps you should switch to AT&T. They are advertising Global GPS now with ATT Navigator (for $19.99/mo).
Good luck in your quest. And I hope you make it thru the door in Reston.

Are the charges for international text messaging for SMS traffic to or from the US? Of course it will work from the US. The international desk knows nothing of a "PAM" plan. I have everything on my plan that you can throw at a Blackberry 8830.
As to getting in the door, appreciate the sentiment, but I've already achieved far more than that once before when a store supervisor told me that if they trashed my phone accidentally and my data was lost as a result, it was not their fault, and I should talk to my lawyer if I don't like that. I did. That supervisor no longer works at Sprint and Sprint was extremely apologetic, as well as forthcoming with a PDA phone to replace the Samsung so I can back up my own data rather than relying on some store dweeb forgetting to do it before trashing the phone.
A lot of people just don't understand that bad service doesn't fix itself.
