I got a world phone. it's cdma and tdma (gsm). it's a mutli-band phone that can do cdma (verzion/sprint) as well as inserting a sim card and using att or tmobile. when I got the phone, it had a verizon gsm sim card in it for world roaming travel, but I got it sim unlocked and can switch from verizon to tmobile (I'm using a tmobile prepaid sim card). I think only HTC makes those world phones at the moment.

So-called "world phones" are marketed by CDMA companies (such as Verizon) so their customers can use their native CDMA service in the USA and GSM service internationally. Several quad band GSM / dual band CDMA phones are currently being sold by Verizon, for example, from a variety of manufacturers including Samsung, RIM, HTC, and PCD. None of this changes the fact that Verizon is a CDMA service and the SIM card is only for GSM service.

Good stuff, isn't it? I've got the PDF version of the rules on mine. :D

Where can one get PDF versions of ASA and NFHS rules?

Thanx.

Nice idea. Not sure how to get the PDF on it in a way I can access it, though. My ASA PDF is also quite old.
