Man arrested for stealing Virgin BlackBerry devices
Even though Virgin has a good contest going on that can win you a BlackBerry Curve and free service for a year… this didn’t stop a 37-year-old Halifax man who has been arrested after breaking into a Virgin kiosk.
Police identified the man through the Scotia Square Mall security video and staff stated they found a glass door forced open and a quantity of stolen BlackBerrys. The Police recovered the devices and the thief is scheduled to appear in court next month on break and enter charges. Happy Holidays…

And the criminal of the year award goes to ….this guy! I guess nobody told him that CDMA devices are carrier locked and cannot be unlocked for use in Canada.

If you’re gonna steal from a carrier, at least let it be Bell.

Brian, allow me to brighten your day, Virgin Mobile is 100 percent owned by Bell. So get out your pointing finger and laugh real hard.

Oh I’m well aware of that. One is a quality company however and one has the worst customer service of any company I’ve ever dealt with.
