Are all japanese Sharp phones that accepts a sim card can be used in north america? or there are specific ones?
also, if any other brand than Sharp japanese phones can be used as long as there's a sim card slot?

sh905i and 920sh can be unlocked but the 920sh not fully unlocked only call - in and out and txt in n out no camera yet

the 903 and 904Sh can be used in Canada assuming you have the right sim card. Hypersims don't wok for some simcards from Fido/Rogers, like the 4000 series from Rogers

hmm.. haven't tried that sim but it's friggin expensive. $100 + 12 USD shipping it's too pricy. I'd rather pick up a Nextsim V6 $20 USD (shipping included) with minimal outs and auto reconnect. This sim has no issues with Richmond hill areas although reception is considerably weak in downtown Toronto (where there should be many towers overlapping).

thank you guys for the info.

so is it only the hypersim that can do this? which fido sim cards can be used (i'm using fido)?
