Can You Use Any Nextel Phone with Boost
I have a few Nextel phones my friends gave to me. But I was wondering if you can use them with Boost. They are I860 and up models

Hi, I'm new to the forum... had to respond to this one though. the two (Boost sim with nextel handset) are not completely compatible. The i930 and the blackberry are marked as specifically incompatible with boost sims and possibly may not even be activated by Boost. Many people do use Nextel handsets; however, if there is a problem with services you may not get troubleshooting help and/or credit. User beware.
