Has anyone tried the Sprint GSM service? I saw the GSM and PDC phones. I was wondering if I can use any GSM phones that are available on the public market.

Before you tell me that Sprint doesn't have GSM, they do have GSM. In fact they also sell GSM phones as well.

Here is the link.

Sprint GSM is mainly for people who travel abroad but I was talking to a CSR and you can use it while you are in the States. Since I haven't seen any posts about Sprint GSm I was wondering if anyone out there is using the service.

The charge for international roaming is $6/month plus the charge per minute, per country.

You can buy a Sprint GSM/PDC Phone or you can lease it.

Yes the GSM phones they use smart cards. The CSR was trying to tell me that The techs at the store are the only ones that can insert the cards.

So if you have this service let me know what you think.

Note: Some of the Sprint GSM phones do not have internet access and/or will not work in the US

So far some of the models that Sprint is selling for the GSM Network is.

Nokia 8310
Nokia 3310
Nokia 6800

Motorola V50
Motorola C330
Motorola T720i

Samsung SGH-V200
