Does anyone know if these are available in Dubai?

Re: Blackberry
Surprisingly I can help you on that – for copious K at least….
Etisalat are testing 15, yep 15 devices all with Emirates at the moment. There is another 6 weeks or so to go of tests, before Etisalat decide whether to support/supply them.
My boss has a small blue number with him as he wings his way to Canada whilst we speak (or type).
So no, they’re not supported, but yes, Etisalat will probably be providing them from May onwards.
Hope that helps – as to whether Du will be providing them tho, we’ll have to wait and see.

Re: Blackberry
Don't believe you can get them here, but if you get one in the US and bring it here (with the worldwide service plan) it will work fine.
I had mine for 1.5 years here and it worked great. Doesn't work in Jordan, Sudan, or Iraq though.

Re: Blackberry
Blackberry are about to disappear due to a US copyright court case. So shop around and find an alternative

Which in a way is scary...in one of those 'too dependent on tech' kind of ways.
