It sound like the carrier discovers the use and blocks the use. ATT does the same thing when they discover a blackberry without a specific BB data plan. ATT owns Cricket and I would guess they are doing the same.
Straight Talk is a type of carrier known as an MVNO (mobile virtual network operator), which means that it doesn't run or own a wireless network. Instead, it purchases the right to use towers from AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and Sprint. they might do the same once they see a device like the Passport
