can anyone recommend a cheap blackberry that has the UMA technology? to cut a long story short my mum has given away her blackberry torch as she found it difficult to use! we have no signal in our village so used the UMA to connect to the orange livebox. I was looking at some blackberry's in the orange shop but want a cheap one from ebay. I have spent ages flicking between ebay and the blackberry sites but the older models do not carry as much information as there new models. I do not want to pay much since my mum gave away her £400 phone away i got her for Christmas, The older models seem to be easier to use.She is 65 years young and quite with it but struggled with the torch and i mean struggled and to be truthful i found it quite hard as well.

The only model I know that is older that has UMA is the 8900.
But bare in mind, it has to be a Orange Branded 8900 model, as any other 8900 doesn't have UMA.

Cheers I had a quick flick they have a few. I might give one a bid. Still cant believe my silly silly mum gave the torch away! She could have sold it on ebay or took it to the carphone shop or the like! Silly woman stuck with a sony ericsson with no signal!

The 8520 also supports UMA, has to be an Orange branded handset though, as stated above.

I added UMA to my Unbranded Sim Free 9700 when I was with Orange, it's just a case of being able to enter the UMA details into the BlackBerry which you need the handset to be unlocked (I think) to be able to do.
