As long as you want to choose between T-Mobile, which has no 3G and poor coverage, or the Deathstar AT&T, which also has fairly crappy 3G coverage (though admittedly has fairly good 2G coverage), that's "freedom"... Plus you can put up with all the downsides of TDMA (the division method, not D-AMPS) based systems...

Honestly, the only real benefit I see to GSM is the global thing, and because our spectrum bands are different than Europe, you still need a "world phone" with a special radio, which makes that advantage only marginally better than our CDMA carriers, which offer dual-radio phones for overseas.
