Open Access

Don't you partially have open access on GSM? I buy my phones where I want and insert their SIM cards and the phone works?

In most of the REST OF THE WORLD, yes.

I do it in the US. Most of my phones have been provider independent. I just bought an 8525 from Cingular and regret it. I'm fighting to get it unlocked and will then have to work to debrand it. It wasn't worth the savings or contract extension. Nokia, however, has been launching stores with unlocked phones, Compusa sells them, Costco and Tiger Direct have them available on the web. These aren't small grey marketers.
