I cannot think of any Samsung that you would want. The Upstage is a smoking turd, and the M300 get's steady complaints from those that have purchased it.

If GSM is dead, why is it used in every country in the world?

Lol I see you know absolutely nothing about the world.
Most of the world is on GSM/UMTS combination.

about wrong driving. go out and learn something. you just proved to me that you are an idiot.
left side driving - blue
right side driving - red
oh and US Virgin islands drive on the left side - well see US territory. what now.

Honestly, Barciur -- Iowa is right about when he said that every company will charge you for roaming if you do it too often. So don't go throwing in a good word on GSM for that reason since its undeserved.

i used to have tmobile and cingular (at the time it was cingular) and it was horrible. also when i put my ear to a tmo or cingular phone, the sound is lower than low. but when i put my ear to a sprint or verizon phone, its loud and clear. idk why that is but its true.

so for the record, i personally dont think GSM is too great

You know I have never ever had problems with voice quality or volume - it's all about phones. Some are louder than the other ones

And I didn't throw any good things about GSM because of roaming thing - I know, I am aware of that, but I was thinking of switching so that roaming thing doesn't will not make me switch it.

And you just haven't got experiencedwith GSM over in Europe - it's much better than in US.
Of course, it's not the best, but it's great.

And if iowa decided to talk crap about GSM and worship CDMA - I will do the opposite.
