official CDMA iPhone service providers

[XFF]

I'm trying to compile a list of official iPhone carriers that use CDMA. By that I mean official iPhone carriers that sell and activate the CDMA version of iPhone 4 and/or iPhone 4S. This does not include carriers that run both HSPA and CDMA networks, but only sell and activate the HSPA version of iPhone 4 and/or iPhone 4S, such as Bell, Telus, MTS, and SaskTel in Canada. I believe Iusacell in Mexico falls in the same category, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

So here's the list:

• Verizon Wireless (USA) - iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S
• Sprint (USA) - iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S
• C-Spire (USA) - iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S
• au (Japan)
• SK Telecom (SK)
• China Telecom (China) - coming soon

Anything else that I missed?

Iusacell in Mexico runs both a HSPA+ network and a CDMA network but the Iphone 4 they have sold runs on CDMA only.

Interesting. I thought it was the other way around (like Bell and Telus), but good to know.

You do know that cdma isn't portable like gsm, right? You can't just start using another cdma carrier. You're going to roam using that cdma carrier under verizon's/sprint's rates.
You're better off getting verizon/sprint doing an international unlock and using gsm carriers when abroad.

You should be able to find that infomation on Verizon's website.

Why would Verizon list other iPhone carriers on their web site?

Maybe I misunderstood the OP's question. Is this about foreign carriers that an iPhone can roam on in CDMA mode (there's a lot of those), or is it about foreign carriers that sell and activate the CDMA version of iPhone 4/4S (there's very few of those)?

They tell which countries have CDMA networks. One can use a search engine to find the CDMA carriers in those countries.

Compare the carrier found above with Apple's list of carriers here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937 to see which are CDMA carriers.

Iusacell in Mexico also sells the iPhone 3GS and the 3GS is GSM only.

Edit: The iPhone 4 Iusacell sells, is GSM

More CDMA carriers

Last month saw six small U.S. carriers begin offering the iPhone for the first time, and it appears that another round of expansion to similar carriers is coming on May 18. Three new iPhone carriers, all operating CDMA networks, have rolled out their announcements so far today:

- Bluegrass Cellular (Kentucky)
- Golden State Cellular (California)
- Nex-Tech Wireless (Kansas)

I had heard that Pioneer was going to have the iPhone available but didn't know it would be this soon. Excellent!

Is any of the CDMA iPhones (USA carriers) listed here require a contract?

Are there any CDMA iphone USA carriers that does not sign contracts, like Canada's Public Mobile?
