You might want to call AIS to ask if you can use that model. It does operate on all 4 bands of GSM. You should get it unlocked in the US if you can. Probably easy to do in Thailand, but you never know.

Blackberries aren't like other phones. The network has to support some of the services, or they won't work. It's not a matter of just changing settings. The service books for the Storm may not be available through AIS. If they didn't have them, you'd get phone and sms, but maybe not the internet browser and email.

I used an unlocked 8320 Curve with an AIS sim and the browser worked and I could also use the connection to browse the internet on my laptop computer. Did not try to set up email since it's on my provicer in the US. But AIS offers that model so the service books downloaded automatically.

But, perhaps as long as they support BBs, any model will work. Not sure of that. Maybe you can ask AIS and the place where you buy it. Basically ask where you buy it if you can use it overseas and get all the features.

I just would like to make sure whether i can use blackberry Storm in BKK.

I am now visiting in US and I am going to buy it in coming weeks and planing to stay back in Bangkok.

All I know is i need to unlock this phone in US if I would like to use it out of US..but with Thai SIM card for sure.

But i would like to use it in BKK right away after buying in here?

So can i unlock in AIS rather than in US Or should I have to make unlocked in US only?

Moreover, I would like to know what kinds of services available for this model in AIS.

Thanks alot for explaining to me..It would be so helpful for me. I am dying to buy this one.
