yes! tdma phone is lock to a provider. gsm phone especialy if the phone
is unlock you can choose a provider that you want. if you want to change
you phone just buy a phone and put your sim card in it and your ready to
go. if you want to change the provider, just but the sim card and put it
into your phone and everything is set. you don't stuck with your
provider and your phone on gsm. that's the diff of cdma and gsm. right
now gsm covers the world.

Which totally avoids what this guy wants. He doesn't *want* GSM he
wants a replacement for his TDMA phone. All that stuff about GSM is
swell but it doesn't do a thing for him!

Thanks.. I was looking on ebay on some tmda phone and I contacted my
provider. They said I can do that by getting a tmda phone if any are still
available or If I want to change to gsm but I really like my plan I have.

o.k. but before you buy it, email your seller first and get the esn
number of that phone. check it to your provider. because some tdma or
cdma phone that selling in ebay is listed to the provider as stolen.
not like gsm phone unlock just put in your sim and start calling.

just get the esn number before you buy it. it's for your money safety
and some of the phone tdma and cdma is not compatible with your
provider. get the cell phone model, esn number and who is the provider
of this phone. and check your provider if they can move your service to
this phone before you pay your seller.
