Wow, I sure hope this is correct. Because if it is, and if we can use an international SIM card (i.e. not paying some exhorbitant roaming charges) and the phone can be unlocked to use int'l GSM carriers, I'm in when my ATT contract is up. Best of both worlds and all that. Unless, of course, ATT lets us unlock and the next generation iPhone is just phenomenally phenomenal. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Phone: (814) 860-3194 or 888-75-BUDDY
