I'm sorry, can you repeat that? You do not want to use a SIM card? Are you an ignorant? Or you like to have your phone company monopolize the sale, operating system and features on your phone...
EV-DO and CDMA are both history. Look what's going arround the globe with wireless telecomunications. We are way behind. I don't even know why you even visited this site. Go stay and do your research at Verizon's site.

GSM is as OLD AS DIRT and is a thing of the past.....it has been around since the 1920's and is half the reason your network is trash and your data speeds are a joke.

yeah well people like you make everything worse because you vote for the crappy guy who doent know anything about technology, and thats why we cant get ahead cause of the fool. In Japan they are about 4 or 5 years ahead of us, because they take a focus on technology. If people stopped fighting and actually focused their time on a project they might actually get somewhere.

I can say calm down 32 but also he is sort of right. GSM is antiquitated technology. CDMA is supported in over 180 countries, I have no idea where 29 gets his info from, but China and Korea both support it and thats a HUGE base of cell phone users.

GSM is being weeded out slowly but surey, and thats ok. I can still buy my phones unlocked in a CDMA netowork because VZW is open to any CDMA device ( i just took an instinct and put it on VZW network, couldnt get the TV service but everything else works awesome ).

I dont know think that open handset on CDMA networks is 100% yet.
As an employee I dont see people taking phones and cross with VZW and Sprint.

First of all, AT&T fan fags can't call Verizon expensive. Everything you have costs just as damn much and your data is more (and slower for that matter). Don't try to pull that "rollover" crap on me either because you damn well know that most people have nothing or everything left over and that crap DOES expire. You just don't tell people that. SO...to call VZW expensive is BS. You cover a much smaller portion of the US population with high speed data. Just admit it. You have a crappier network and that is the only reason you were willing to sell your souls the Apple. You knew the iphone would convince people to put up with a shitty network just to own a phone. Congrats on not having any balls. Put up or shut up.

I'm reading that HSPA is faster than even DOrA, so that leaves the question of what will vzw be while att is increasing thier 3g footprint with plans for 4g in a few years and Sprint is practically even with 3g with 4g here now

HSPA in theory is faster than DOrA so adding a plus to that is supposed to make it more faster, all the while Wi Max is up and running
