    Seems to me the ability to switch the SIM to another phone is an adavantage if your phone gets damaged and you need a replacement. Of Course CDMA is not very big in Europe yet so if you have business over there it simpler having a GSM phone vs getting a world phone.

    Frankly I don't care what standard it uses as long as it works. There are benefits to both..

    has anyone gotten a straight answer on whether or not it's possible just to get a sim card?

    Yea, someone said it, then said another guy said it wasn't possible. Either way i just wanted a definite answer. I guess i'll just have to call in myself and see what they say.

    Do You really give a Sheeps @$$ ?

    When we become stronger, we will hit back. And we will make pain, and they will suffer. Because we would have preferred for them to live and let live, but if they play unfairly, our day of revenge will come.

    Yea, i could toss it into my i930 and compare it to my MiKE for fun. It's the cheapest way to compare. Plus if i'm ever out of signal on my mike, i can forward it to the gsm number for a limited time. With a 365 day expiry you can't go wrong.

    Just curious... is your i930 working on MiKE? I am a GSM man, so I don't have much of an idea about iDEN.

    Has anyone tested the long distance in the GTA? For example, can you call a 416 number in Toronto from say Oshawa or Newmarket?

    I don't think running a 1900 only phone is a fair comparison on rogers at all

    i'm fully aware... still, it's fun to be able to hop networks if i dont have service with the other.

    baggio as soon as I heard about this service (and the fact that it can carry over for a full year) I thought to do the exact same thing as you. I'm trading for an i930 soon and like the idea of having a GSM fall-back number

    You wish iDEN in Ontario is more solid than CDMA or GSM
