Need help about new phones.

Can any of u phone gurus help me with my decision? I am with nextel right now. The phones are usually lagging behind in technology quite a bit. I am thinking of swiching to Verizon or someone like that. U see I was told by a friend that all those new phones that come out over in China and Europe, way before they do here, you know the motorolas and siemens and sony ericsons. They all have way more advanced technology than our phones, he told me that I could buy them online from the other countries and hook them up here with most of the providers way before they come to America. But Nextel only does iden phones so those cool new phones would never be able to work on their network. Is he right, or is he feeding me garbage? What do you ...

If you need Direct Connect, stay with Nextel and wait for the i860 and i930 to come out. Those will be just about as advanced as any phone on the market.

If you want the cool overseas phones, your best bet is T-Mobile. Unless they're quad band, most overseas phones don't run on the 850 Mhz band that Cingular/AT&T use. Though they both use 1900 Mhz in some markets, they (especially when they merge) will have much broader coverage in the 850 band. T-Mobile's network is all 1900 Mhz.

Wow, that makes things much more interesting. 😁 Some of those CDMA Motos are looking much better now.
