Default Cell Phone Guru's Need Help Please.

Currently I am with Verizon and was given a BackBerry Pearl today. The phone is from T-Mobile and they use SIM Cards and Verizon does not. I called Verizon and they gave me the run around and said there is a 2% chance that it will work if unlocked ect. Is this true? Thanks.

Verizon and T-mobile use different technology. CDMA vs GSM Lucent vs Ericson
My phone makes calls and recieves calls nothing fancy

Don't think you will be able to use it.
