Sharp TM-200

yeah it means you can put any gsm carrier's sim and it will read it. it doesnt necessarily mean you will have data capabilities on the phone because of that... some features might be restricted unless otherwise flashed. they charge 700 for a phone thats not even worth 100 because no one here in the us has access to them otherwise so these companies make a huuuuuuuuuge profit on them. dirty? yes. would i do it if i knew how i could get my hands on those phones cheap? yes.
