Default How hard would it be to sell my 8703e?

Please Login to Remove!

I'm trying to get on a budget here and my phone bill as almost as my car insurance (two cars with full coverage). So I've accepted the fact that I may not be a proud BlackBerry user in the near future.

My question as stated in the title. It's CDMA, so it shouldn't be locked right?
I should be able to sell it fairly easy right?

All I need to do is wipe the device and tell Alltel to unregister the device?

well you could look on ebay and see what there selling for
Don't need to be unlocked
that all you have to do is call to cancel and wipe the device

I don't think I would list it as "unlocked". My exp. has been that you can't cross carriers, you can for a short time, however when and if the carrier does a system update for the phone it has the tendency to revert back to the original carrier.

The Ebay thing is the best way to see what your phone is worth.

Most of the other CDMA carriers that it would work on like Verizon and Sprint don't usually allow other carrier's phones on their network. As already suggested, eBay as an Alltel 8703e would be the best bet.
