Well, it's not GSM and I dont think there are CDMA networks in India, but I am not sure. If u would have T-Mobile or Cingular, u would be able to do that.

You can only use your cell phone from the United States if you're using Cingular or T-mo. Verizon uses CDMA, whereas GSM is more of the world-wide network.
With cingular/t-mo phones, you can just switch out the chip, and t-mo has an international network. So, with t-mo, you might not have to switch the chip. My cousin could still use her phone when she went to Russia, with t-mo, of course.

Not true. The pricing is India:
$1.29/min
Does not deduct from domestic bundles.
Text: $.50 to Send, $.05 to Receive,
Requires an ERI-capable handset. This can be found at Verizon Wireless' website. India is one of the countries a CDMA phone can work in, it just isn't the least expensive way out there. Just call the call center and they can inform you of this and activate any needed features.
