Is BB - BIS = Brick?

[Quintrix]

How effective would a BB be without BIS? Besides BBM would anything else be offline?

Reason: looking at a BB on a data bundle instead of BIS. Me have no money for new phone now.

Data bundle is more expensive than BIS...

You get some cheaper BIS options out there these days...

Without his it is a brick though, been there while I lent a phone when mine broke... Didn't get BIS was a mission to add to contract, just ran whatsapp..

With a bundle u can do most normal things ie Internet and whatsapp, just nothing that runs through BIS, I had a bundle with whatsapp and mews24 and just browsed the web as usual.

Its a brick without bis. Rather sell your bb and get another phone if you're not interested in bis.

its not really a brick.

you can still connect to whatsapp and internet using your normal airtime.

I have never used BBM.
