    Blackberrys and multiple email accounts

    Two questions here but the main question is can a Blackberry be set up to receive email from multiple accounts? The provider would be O2 if it makes any difference.

    Question two - I'm currently on an 18 month contract with O2 that has about 6/7 months to run. Depending on the answer to question one I'll need to get a Blackberry. Would O2 require me to pay off the remainder of my current contract before letting me upgrade to a Blackberry?

    TIA

    Blackberrys can have upto 10 email accounts setup on them without any problems whatsoever.

    With regards to your upgrade, only way you get to do it early is by invitation where a letter is received through the post with a code on it which allows you to upgrade early. Its for certain types of customer and I havn't come across 1 person yet that has had a code to upgrade that early.

    So to upgrade early your answer is you would have to pay off your contract first and setup a new one.

    Thanks for that. To pay off an account I take would be calculated by multiplying the number of months left by the monthly payment?

    Yeah thats how it works, what you could do first though is drop to a lower tariff so paying off the contract would work out cheaper.
