I just got this phone and I had a different one without the keyboard and touchscreen so I ordered wrong one. This can be used without internet right?

Sound like the wrong phone. The Extravert should have a touch screen face and slide out keyboard. The Extravert is a basic phone that didn't require a data plan.

As long as you have GSM service, you can use all the phone features. For this, you need a SIM card. You can use all other features without a SIM card. With WIFI you can use all features.

I loved this phone, but I never had data on it. I believe that you can connect to the internet, although I am not sure what the cost of doing so would be. I finally got a smart phone, but it is costly to have internet. Hope this helped.

No this phone does not require a telephone system or internet. You plug it into a standard phone line just like you would any other land phone.

I'm not sure because I really didn't use those functions, I only needed the phone for text and phone calls and I don't have the phone anymore or else I would've checked to see if it did. Sorry

To be honest with you, I don't know about this phone; however, I have other phones that has been disconnected that I am still using WiFi with them without using phone services.

Let me be more specific: It does do internet and texting but it has no keyboard---just the regular older style keypad where you have to hit each key a number of times to arrive at the letter you want when composing a text or typing in an internet address. It does take pictures--ones that are quite low res when compared with those of a smart phone. I continue to use this antiquated Nokia 6350 mainly out of stubborn refusal to upgrade to a 'smart phone' which would actually serve me much better in many respects, mainly because it is small and my AT&T; 'Go Phone' plan for it---unlimited EVERYTHING---is just $50 per month.

This is one of very few that can be a smart phone, but is not required to carry a data plan, which is where the extra money comes in. So you can have this touch screen with out any extra charges. You don't have to pay extra for the data (or internet usage) just know that if you don't get a data plan, you won't be able to connect to the internet with this phone. I hope.this helps :)

Yes you can use it without Internet but you lose the remote capabilities. It would act as a programmable thermostat.

No, it's not a smart phone or tablet. It can't use apps or connect to internet service. Just a music player with Bluetooth.

i wanna ask the same question can you use the phone without data but still get free mobile to mobile calling?? is everything the same just minus data??

No, it's not a smartphone, but it's a decently performing quick-messaging phone. That is, it has some internet capability but it's not really meant for data use as it can't access 4g and can't view HTML. It works really well as a texting phone.

No need for internet. I went to Verizon and specifically asked them to turn it off. If they don't turn it off on their end then yes, I believe you are subject to accidental data charges. Check with your carrier; I use Verizon

In order to use the internet services on this phone without wifi, you will have to have a data plan.

You cannot use internet on the go with this TouchBook because it is not capable to use a SIM card, this tablet works with WI-FI only.http://www.amazon.com/gp/aag/main?ie=UTF8&asin;=&isAmazonFulfilled;=&isCBA;=&marketplaceID;=ATVPDKIKX0DER&orderID;=&seller;=AYSI9CNL93O4X

No wifi. you need to have Internet on your cell phone plan, and if you use internet on this phone it's not Internet friendly the keys & screen will literally drive you nuts!
