Cheap CDMA phone

[Stu]

Some CDMA sets use SIM cards, but not the Americas ones which is the world's largest CDMA zone. Chinese and Indian CDMA phones use an RSIM (I think is the name) and are CDMA 850 compatible.

For example, look at the Asian version of the Nokia 6265:

This is precisely why I prefer GSM. I can (and do) use whatever phone I like.

I should be shuddering at wanting to use my S-E K610i since it's not quad-band, but it works great here. I don't miss GSM 850 with it at all.
