AFAIK, it's a 3G phone and the only version I've heard about is intended only for overseas markets (WCDMA 2100). If they make a version for the U.S. (WCDMA 1900), I'll cover it. Otherwise, I don't cover phones like that.

It's like buying a Ferarri and only driving it in your driveway. Same deal with those Korean CDMA phones some people import and use with Veri...

Probably, although it did relate to my publishing policies, so it wasn't totally off-base.
