Connect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network

When you turn on your BlackBerry 8703e by pressing the Power button, it should automatically connect to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network.

To connect to the network successfully, your Sprint PCS service must be active, and you must be in a Nationwide Sprint PCS Network service area. For more information about wireless coverage indicators, please see the chart on page 34.

If your BlackBerry 8703e is on but the wireless radio is turned off (if the

coverage indicator says ), you can connect to the network by clicking Turn Wireless On.

Using Your BlackBerry 8703e Without a Wireless Connection

When your BlackBerry 8703e is not connected to a wireless network (or if the wireless radio is turned off) you can continue to use features that do not require a connection to a network. For example, you can type and save draft email messages, manage tasks, or use the calculator.

Note: If you use BlackBerry Internet ServiceTM, the account setup process may begin

automatically the first time your BlackBerry 8703e connects to the Nationwide Sprint PCS Network. See “Setting Up for Email Using BlackBerry Internet Service” on page 9 for more information.
