Default Can you buy and use prepaid minutes for all Treo 650 funcitons?

Hi. I didn't have or want a cell phone. A friend gave me an extra Kyocera Smartphone (palm os) which I have to come to love. I do not subscribe to a plan; I prepay minutes.
If I buy a Treo 650 without a plan subscription, can I buy prepaid minutes for it, and will they cover the email and web functions of the Treo?

Hi Ricko,
I do not think that prepay minutes are a problem. I put a SIM card which is prepaid and made a call. It worked. As for theemail and web functions? Cingular says you can use their MediaNet on any phone, but I do not know if that is true of their prepaid. I am not in a position to try, but by Sunday afternoon I will be able too. So that question is on my brain too.
Good luck,
Geo

Thanks Geo. Let me know what you figure out. I need to make a decision on buying an expensive Treo before December 31, but whatever you learn, and whenever, I appreciate your sharing it with me. Happy New Year.

Hi,

I'd suggest calling the carrier(s) to see what's offered as the fastest route. Good luck!
