BBerryNews It appears India is not the only country concerned with getting access to BlackBerry Messenger conversations. The UAE (United Arab Emirates) telco was unable to monitor what people are saying on their BlackBerry’s. The solution is to institute a ban on internet access, email, and instant messaging on BlackBerry devices starting in October. BBM is not going to make it until October, the UAE plans to block that service later this month. Now RIM can bypass this block by complying with the request, but that will have a serious impact on RIM globally.
RIM is in one of the worst situations. RIM likely will not comply with the request (demands) of the UAE or India, but what if 5 or 10 more countries threaten a ban? If they comply how many countries will ask for the same data. It is almost damned if you do, damned if you don’t. Time will tell how this play out.

BBerryNews Situation:
I bought the phone off a good friend who bought it off Ebay, brand new still in the box. It is an unlocked mobile, originally T-Mobile but I am using an o2 sim in it.
The phone works fine, I can connect to wireless internet and text/call people. But I am having a problem setting up the general internet, Blackberry Messenger and Email account.
I have looked into it and tried to set up a BlackBerry Service account on o2, by entering my PIN and IMEI, but then I found out I had to register with my wireless service provider. I then went to "host routing table" and pressed "register now", and it says that a message has been sent, but nothing has happened as a result.
If anyone can see what I have done wrong then I would be very grateful of your help, because I really don’t know what to do! Thanks in advance, Tilly.
