Dual Mode Gsm Cdma Handset

True,

But coming from CDMA country (North America), I'd love to have a cheap roaming solution to get me coverage on CDMA networks. On the other hand the GSM situation is not what it used to be in the US. I had GSM coverage in Michigan's Upper Pennisula last year. With Cingular being the US's GSM powerhouse and TMobile being in the list of big players, I think most rural careers will start supporting both GSM and CDMA. These carriers make more money from roaming than subscribing.

On the other hand, only Yanks and Cannucks are going to benefit from this. The Pidgeon River Telephone Cooperative is probably not going to sign a roaming agreement with Mobikom or Orange IL.
