Hello,
I am newly stationed in South Korea and would like to know if any members can assist me.
My current 8525 with AT&T is mostly useless in South Korea.
Is there a PDA phone that will work in South Korea and back in the USA? Do any of you have experience with such a phone and obtaining service with that phone from a provider in Korea?
My bottom line is a PDA phone with the following
Works in Korea and the USA
Full QWERTY key board
Windows Mobile
Blue Tooth
Internet capable
Unlocked
I don’t have a preference about things like tv or radio, but GPS capability would be nice.
Regards
Tony

Hello again,
I think my question needs to be reframed.
I am going to be living in Korea for the next two-3 years. I am wondering if anybody has purchased a PDA phone in Korea and then get a service plan for the same phone when returning to the USA. Or the opposite.get a phone in the USA and the get a service plan for that same phone when coming to Korea.
Although I am aware of the Korean CDMA2000 network incompatibility with older phones from the USA, I am wondering if any new technology out there has overcome that problem.
Regards,
Tony
PS I find the Nokia n800 option to be very interesting. I will be researching that option. However an issue I already see with it is the lack of hot spots where I am working.
