Re: Converting to GSM? Heh heh...I just realized that I wrote my last post quite hastily. I intended to say "convert" instead of "commit." Although, in a sense it is a commitment.
I already knew that Verizon uses CDMA; that's one of the reasons why I don't like them. It's not the actual CDMA, but the implementation, since Verizon chose not to use RUIM cards.
When I asked about Verizon converting to GSM, I meant any variant of GSM, whether it be GPRS or HSOPA. And I get the impression that LTE is a newer version of GSM. Is that correct?
But if this means that Verizon is going to start using the technology that nearly everyone else uses, then great. I don't always say "follow the leader," but I really do think that all mobile phone networks should use the same technology, especially since it's so easy to carry a phone from one country to another. |
