I dun think Verizon can be supported , coz : CDMA EV-DO Rev. A (800, 1900 MHz)

In Malaysia , most of the service provider uses : UMTS/HSDPA/HSUPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz)

Ive never seen any provider using CDMA band before @@

Correct me if im wrong

Q: can use maxis, digi or celcom for 3G?
A: Yes you can use with any 3g Network including Celcom, Maxix and Digi."

i've asked the seller, if it comes with a micro sim card slot...he says that he is using it now..with Maxis data plan...and no problem at all...
and he's selling it cheap too....

I dun think he got do any research based on Malaysia and CDMa band ?

Q : can use maxis, digi or celcom for 3G?
A : Yes you can use with any 3g Network including Celcom, Maxix and Digi.

Some spelling error of his

I did some google searching and here's the result :

Q : I'm planning to buy Droid Incredible in the US, and bring it back to MAlaysia,
but can I use it in Malaysia?

A : Currently only American and Canadian mobile operators use CDMA networks, so no.

only TM (www.tm.com.my) and Electcoms (www.electcoms.com.my) offer CDMA in malaysia. You can go to TM Point and ask them about this. I already use Nokia 2112 CDMA mobile phone with TM fixed line number.

But one thing for sure

A verizon iPad is CDMA and if you wanna change telco , tat telco must support CDMA too , otherwise it is a Wifi iPad edi

Thats the downside of CDMA iPad's

I doubt it can work with GSM network coz the Verizon unit only have CDMA chip embedded inside instead of the GSM chip. Maybe someone ordered a wrong bulk order and trying to sell it off with attrative price!!
