Does anybody know if the driod 2 is compatible gsm services in malaysia and singapore?

If not, what phones would you guys recommend that i can get my hands on in the US and still work here, assuming they are unlocked models.

I am currently interested in the driod 2 and driod incredible.

DroidX and Droid2 are CDMA, not compatible with our GSM.....you have to wait for the GSM version like the Droid/cdma=Milestone/gsm.

Droid phones are locked to Verizon Wireless and do not have sim cards because they are CDMA phones and that's how Verizon rolls. You want an unlocked phone, go to Singapore.

An unlocked Droid 2 would cost around $300

Get a GSM line in US like ATT or Tmobile, and get the Samsung Galaxy S GSM version such as Samsung Vibrant or Samsung Captivate smile.gif

Best buy does sell the unlocked driod 2. But i didnt know that it was cdma and not gsm.

If thats the case with their phones, if a person from the US brings along their phone to asia, how will their phone work if its cdma and not gsm?

or is this applicable only to "locked" phones.

Im looking for a 3.7 inch phone since i've tried the galaxy s (gsm version) and found it too big. Plus it doesnt really fit my jeans.
