That is why they have wonderful CDMA networks with GPRS operating at 144mhz, and an excellent iDEN network! Not to mention the rates, regardless of the per min charge which is offset ay the nearly free charge to call a mobile locally!

800 and 850 are the same thing. GSM service on the 1900 is that strong but it will be just as strong as CDMA if your provider is planning on deploying UMTS (WCDMA). The only company so far to announce that service is AT&T Wireless. One other benefit to the technology is the data speeds will be 2.4MB/S

actually Interwave has already deployed an 850 mhz GSM service in Alaska. The Motorola T720 for GSM service is equipped with both the 1900 & 850 mhz bands of operation
