Gas man went to Mexico not long ago. He also uses Sprint...and was using that damn Blackberry the whole time he was there.

I lived in San Diego for about 10 years and have been to Mexico quite a few times. As soon as I crossed the border, the coverage would change from At&t to some other carrier. I never tried to use the phone there, but I am thinking you will need the international calling code for Mexico(or something like that)

It should work but watch out for roaming fees!

As marko said... right after I arrived...
![]() But you have to call this dept at Sprint to add blackberry data coverage in Mexico. It cost like $1 a day for unlimited data. The voice mins will still run like $0.50 or somin. They don't garuantee text messaging AT ALL. I know Blackberry's specifically have a plan and the others have something similar but different. I have the number at home and will post it later for you. |

I was about 1 hr from Cancun. It was fine. Flew into cancun and had good service too.
I must have ditched the number. Just call *2 and ask for the internation roaming dept. It's a monthly add on that you can add on your plan for Day X - Day Y. So it will be pro-rated. Seriously, it won't cost you that much. You have a blackberry? They have BB specific plans. |

The mexican cell companies were smart enough to install cell towers that work with US phones, but mainly in the tourist traps, I forget which standard they use, but you should be alright
