I'm pretty sure you need a data plan to use it.

Does the 8900 have WiFi? Because if it does then find somewhere you can hookup to WiFi free (Starbuck, most local libraries) And go from there, if it doesn't support WiFi, then you might be out of luck.

Yes, you do.

(n) for workarounds.

You can download the App over wifi however, the App will not work without a data plan.

why would you even want it with out a data plan? You cant use it.

I've tried to download it through wifi and it just says my blackberry doesnt meet "system requirements" you would think it would work... is there any other way?

No.

And even if you could download App World, which you can't, it would not work, so what would be the purpose of having it?

This might help you understand.

You had the answers given to you..

Daphne he doesnt want to hear it, hes going to keep asking the same question "why wont it work"

What is the definition of insanity again? ;-)

No, I would not. Why do you think it would work if you don't meet the system requirements? http://forums.s2kca.com/images/smilies/rolleye2.gif

I don't know how to make this any more clear cut.

Get a BB data plan.

Even if (and you CAN'T) you were to jam it onto your Blackberry somehow, it would never show any apps. It would be blank and give you cryptic error messages about no internet connection.

App World Without Data Plan
 

Don't give 'em such a hard time. I don't have a Blackberry plan either but it doesn't make me a lower life form. I loaded App World onto my 8320 via Desktop Manager but was unsure at the time if it would work over wi-fi without a data plan.
And FYI, you can download games an things from App World that will work without a data plan. That was my intention. And I just wanted it on my phone.
