I agree that the pricing is Australia seems more apropos. In an earlier post (rant) you were expounding that Vodaphone should have Qualcom phones in Australia instead of Telit and Ericsson GSM handsets; Is it true today that the Qualcom handset can receive both CDMA and GSM cellular signals? I live in Alaska and am going golfing in Ireland in Mid-May for a month and can't get any CDMA, TDMA, or other cell-phone that will work at home and also work in the U. K. Since it is necessary for me to rent a GSM phone for the month, I have thought about buying a G* phone if it is truly tri-modal. It isn't as much about keeping the same phone number while I am gone, but rather having a handset that would access the local cell whatever mode it is in, and would access the satellite when there is no local cell.
My purchase of G* shares is predicated on the subscribers and minutes coming from Brazil, Australia and the like where I feel the complementary cell service is almost a non-factor. Those of us in the truly developed countries who chose a G* solution will be icing on the cake IMO.
