Wait till they get GAIT phones. These phones allow you to use GSM AND TDMA at the same time. You can also get Analog transcievers to "add on" if any of you remember the OLD school voicestream phones "Nokia 5190".

I agree GSM rules.
GSM is TDMA technology though.So when you say TDMA, you can be talking about the older(in the US) digital service or GSM.GSM has been around longer than either CDMA or US based TDMA(I can't think of the actual name) digital service, they were using GSM in Europe while we still had the crappy analog cell service here in the US.
