clubs: | Re: LTE is not GSM So does this mean that VZW customers in the future have SIM cards inside their phones? How about all the other benefits of a SIM card? | |

Valencia, CA | Only North American (basically Canada/US) carriers do not like people 'moving around' via SIM card. In many other countries, SIM cards, prepaid and non-subsidized phones are the norm.

| Re: LTE is not GSM Even CDMA phones outside North America have SIM-equivelent cards, sometimes Verizon/Sprint phones have left over card slots under the batteries, although they are useless because of firmware and network design, although if you can find a FW to flash the phone, you can take it to a country with RUIM CDMA networks. | |
