I got a blackberry today from some dude, it's obviously stolen. and still active...I think I'm just going to reset it, clear the settings, and sign it up under my name. Do you think this is sketchy?

i don't know, but i would asume it has been registered with the manufacturer. like a warranty card or something.
but don't take my word for it i realy have no idea.
but that may be a possibility.

it's 'locked' with rogers wireless. it cost's money to unlock it, but I've got it cleared of any previous owner information.

:shifteyes: yess a pawn shop.. 
I really have no use for this thing. I took the SIM chip out, and now it's basicaly a PDA...I could get it setup on a new plan ut it's like $45 a month, for something I won't really use. Into my drawer of junk I guess.

the serial number might be on record with the manufacturer along wth the name of whoever registered it. It may be reported stolen.
as long as you got it at a garage sell I would THINK that it couldn't hurt to try to register it.
but then again............... don't take anything i say for a fact i realy have no idea just a thought

I think your right. I dont even want this damn thing, and it's kind of hard to get any cash or money for it. which sucks because I could use some coin.

My Dad just got a new one of those. They're definitely a nifty piece of hardware.
