[blindlaw] Smart Phone article of interest

The iPhone is a dual band phone and can work on CDMA and GSM networks. If
you are a customer in good standing, Verizon will unlock your iPhone at no
charge, meaning that you need not pay full price for an unlocked phone at
the time of purchase.

Hello Mr. McBride:

It is probable that you may have been conned by an AT&T sales agent.
However, it should be borne in mind that an AT&T iPhone WILL NOT work on a
Sprint network.  Sprint operates on the CDMA network.  AT&T, on the
otherhand, is strictly a GSM network.  May be the iPhone supports dual
networks, but I am not certain about that.  

If one wants an unlocked iPhone which can be ported to other networks, the
cost, if memory serves, is well over $800.  

I work extra hard never to be locked into any contract; I simply purchase my
own phone(s) and get a SIM card from a carrier of my choice.  

I'm not an iPhone enthusiast; I prefer instead the Android platform because
it gives me more freedom to roam than the iPhone does.  For example, I can
change my own batteries on an Android-based phone, and, I can also use an SD
card if I so desire.  The chargers are pretty much universal--I can just
walk over to WalMart and pick one up if necessary.  I'm taking a hard look
at the Galaxy S4 sold by Google.

Sincerely,
Olusegun
