Pin numbers usually denote the network they are on. 2 is GSM, 3 is CDMA, 4 is iDEN and I think 1 is Mobitex or one of the other really old networks.

We had a user with a model that we didn't test or support (Sprint 7130) have problems and we tried for a little bit and finally told him to return it for a 7250, 7290 or 8700.

The user claimed that in the area of New Mexico that he was in, only Sprint worked.

I guess you can send out an e-mail to all the BES users letting them know that they have 2 months to switch to a supported device or they will have their account disabled.
