Tero,

-continued-

PS. Please stand some heats from your own statements also if you can!

PS. My in-laws brought their so called "world phone" GSM model with them to our east coast trip just about two weeks ago. Father-in-law turned it on while we were at Longwood Garden just about 45 minutes out of US Highway 95 (a major east coast highway). No reception what so ever. The phone was on to look for any signal. He did not get any until we reached about 15 minutes range within US 95. Then he saw Omnipoint sign shows. Amazingly, the 280 hours standby time for so called GSM "world phone" had dropped from a full charged status to a 1/4 of its remaining stand-by sign. You bet how my father in law feels about a GSM world phone now. A scam! Of course, He is an average cell user who wants his cell phone works everywhere as you like to describe in your dreamed GSM world.

Yeah. So much for GSM world phone dreams vs. the stand-by time of G* phone. And all that switchings between 900 MHZ vs. 1800 MHZ vs. AMPS do not use up your dreamed GSM world phone's stand-by time. Prove it!
