Default EDGE on the 7100g....no?

Please Login to Remove!

Hiya guys,

need to ask quickly if this is still correct.

acroding to laptopmag.com (see link)
http://laptopmag.com/Review/BlackBerry-7100g.htm

the 7100g will not run on the EDGE network (which appears to be supplied in the country our blackberry wont work...Bangladesh)
Before I go banging my head on the desk...is this true? and is there a way round this, or is it a restriction with the hardware?

EDIT: also checked http://www.blackberry.com/products/b...rry7100g.shtml

and it says the same...but sometimes where there is a will, there is a way....

Thanks in advance (again) guys.

G

The 7100g is GPRS only and will not oick up an EDGE network. Please cease banging your head on the desk. This is a hardware restriction.

Where there is a will, there's an inheritance tax.
