I believe the Verizon Storm is also a quad band GSM phone. If it's unlocked, it should work. I have a Verizon Z6C World phone that is unlocked. But it only has GSM 900 and 1800, So I cannot even test it in the U.S.

From my understanding all Verizon World (GSM-capable) phones are locked to a Verizon/Vodaphone SIM. At least that's the story with the ones we support at work (Blackberry 8830 and Storm and we have a LOT!).

I have a Verizon Motorola Z6C World phone. It also has a Vodaphone SIM. I had mine unlocked by Verizon. They gave me a code (called a subsidy code) to have it unlocked to use any SIM. I used it in Europe last year with a Telestial/Ekit SIM. I was also told by Verizon that I could get an 8830 unlocked too if I bought one. Check with their Global Support Group.
