Sling,

I'm not sure that it was specifically stated that the Dual Mode phone was going to be Internet ready, but it's a good assumption. However, GSM Internet doesn't seem to be in the cards, per my interpretation:

the Internet capability of the i1000plus will make use of the packet-switched data format of the iDEN system. Note that we have already been told that the 'WorldPhone' will do GSM in Europe (and the U.S., if the roaming agreements are put in place), but will not have D.C. (dispatch) capability on the system, as it too is unique to iDEN.
