My gf attempted to call SKT to get an answer on this for you (and for me since I was wondering how bad the rates are over there), but she doesn't know phones as well as ppl on this forum do, and based on other threads I've read, neither do many of the reps. She has a voip line from SKT, so it was a free call to customer service.

SKT confirmed that a foreign BB Bold cannot work on their network, unless you are roaming on it with a foreign sim. The cost of the Bold ranged between $600-800 CDN depending on whether you took a contract (yes, $600 is the contract price). A quick search of the web indicates that BIS will cost $20 CDN for 30 MB.

BB in Asia is ridiciously expensive as it's really only used by international business.
