I would have thought so too.  I don't think I rely on any BB- 
specific network services either. I thought that I get my SIM,  
register the device with the ISP/phone service, and I am good  
to go. What does that process have anything to do with the BB  
network?

But if you go to the /blackberry link that I saw mentioned in  
that message, luckym.ca/blackberry, it appears that they are  
proclaiming that a variety of BB "Devices that will no longer  
operate"

Perhaps this is just an obfuscated way of saying that only the  
BB network of services will cease, but not the phone using the  
Lucky network?

But it seems to me that Lucky can simply disable my account  
since they know that the IMEI pertains to a BB device if they  
want to.  That is a bit diconcerting.
