I like my cdma phone but a sim card would be nice and an unlocked phone would also be just as nice. There is a such a card in the CDMA world. It is called an R-UIM (see »www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-ruim-card.htm) but no US carrier uses it and probably never will since it would require them giving up some of the control they currently have over their users. Plus at $25 to perform an ESN swap, they would also wind up losing a bit of revenue. The #1 reason is have T-Mobile is because of the SIM card and the ability to swap it between various phones I have. -- I support the right to keep and arm bears.
