Like I said, it IS possible to combine the dual networks on the Hybrid Phones. I 'm not buying the two can't work tobgether bullcrap. When they come out with a Hybrid that will roam on 800, I'll buy it.

This kinda proves my point http://www.rim.com/news/press/2007/p..._2007-01.shtml

I'm going to try to help you stop making a complete fool of yourself one last time. The challenge is that CDMA/iDEN radios are powered on and operating at the SAME TIME. That link you provided, which you either failed to read or failed to understand, clearly states "Auto-selection of CDMA/GSM Mode." That means that either GSM or CDMA is on, but not on at the same time.

It IS possible to combine dual networks on anything, heck the i930 did it, and the i2000+ before that. That is not and never was the issue. You are confusing apples with oranges.

If it is so hard to "cram" all of these frequencies into the 902 then how did they accomplish multiple bands in the I930 Nextel which has all GSM bands, Direct Connect, bluetooth mp3 etc. etc.. It CAN be done.

You should do research on RF freq and air interface technologies. i930 radio boards dont work at the same time..... On the hybrids it works because there is 800 freq gap between 800iden and 1900 cdma. If will kill the battery to have to try error correct the interference from the adjacent radio at the same time reducing your cdma signal or no iden signal.....
