I need a new phone. I have 6 weeks and 3 days until I get my $150 rebate for a new phone. Yes, I'm counting down. My phone is such a pile of ----. I sent like 15 text messages and made a 3 minute phone call and the battery was dead from a full charge. :7

gsm phones are the ones that use sim cards...the 850 and 1900 are 2 of the bands that are used by gsm carriers

re-reading your thread I see that you have GSM service. Sorry can't help ya, the place I work only makes CDMA phones. The one in texas handles the GSM. Do they even make the 9900 for gsm?

what are examples of CDMA phones?

nextel/sprint/verizon. Don't have sim-cards. I *think* it only exists in USA but I wouldn't be surprised if they use it elsewhere

Re: Who gots the hook up?
 
I'm trying to find somehting about that on www.rogers.com
From what i can tell they use CDMA phones aswell on the 1800band or something?

thats ------ weird...i just looked on their site, and it looks like they use tdma and 1900 gsm, which means they are prolly phasing out tdma to replace it with gsm.

however, here is their gsm coverage map...http://www.gsmworld.com/cgi-bin/ni_map.pl?cc=ca&net=rw

if u are in a place where their service is okay on that map...a purely gsm phone should work fine.
