    Default 2 questions about phones

    1. What is the best all around dual chip phone out there? best bang for your buck. My brother wants one, and I may buy one for him, but i have to buy it unlocked since it's going out of the country. Nothing too expensive or fancy.

    2. I'm trying to setup POP3 email on a blackberry curve, but it's not working. Anyone with expertise on this? It's a sprint phone and i've got a data plan.

    By dual chip, are you saying you need a device that can support 2 sim cards at once, or just an unlocked phone that accepts many different SIM cards?

    What email provider are you trying to put on there?

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!

    You used one before Julio? I've had a few customers come in before all pissed off that we didn't have chargers for that knock-off shit haha. "What do you mean you don't carry Iphone chargers?!"...."Um, b/c it's not an Iphone?"......personally, I wouldn't recommend the i9, or any iPhone knock-off. That Nokia seems like a good choice

    Get an iPhone ripoff - the CECT P168 is dirt cheap on ebay and it has dual sim slots.

    Ok here the Deal with the Dual Sim Cards.
    From what I have been able to find is few major manfacters are just starting to jump on broad with dual Sims. So most of the smart phones you are going to find are clones of other phones.

    Samsung has realse a couple:
    B5712C
    B5702
    D780
    SGH-D880
    D980
    D988
    W629
    (that all i could find)

    LG
    LG-KS660(My Favorite)

    Then you have the chineses clones and knockoff. Which some reveiws stay are not bad

    You and convert your phone in to a daul sim phone.
