Re: How Long Until a GSM Version? said by n2jtx:I have to wonder what Palm is thinking. A device tied the third largest carrier out of four. Had they gone with a GSM model, they could have had AT&T and T-Mobile customers as well as any other country in the world that supports GSM. I wonder if/when an unlocked GSM version will be available. Sprint has a network that blows everything but VZ out of the water and is faster and more stable the VZ, in the Northeast anyways. I would have switched to GSM a long time ago, but ATT is lost-call-deluxe and their 3G is horrible, VZ is expensive and TMobile is considered something teens use for fun, No 3G and they run off ATT anyways, they have no real presence. Throughout the ACELA corridor (Boston to Washington, Sprint is quite powerful.
I know Sprint used to lack much in customer service, but that has gotten much better, and their price/performance ratio cannot be beat. I can tether my Centro to my notebook and not pay a dime extra. Their plans are very forgiving.
Edit... also
"Palm Pre is scheduled to be available first in the United States exclusively from Sprint in the first half of 2009, and will be followed by a world-ready UMTS version for other regions."
