For Europe GSM is the only way to go. And also India and I suppose China. You MUST have a phone that operates on 1800 MHZ or you will be up the proverbial creek.
Nokia phones all use the same charger and seem to run forever and ever.
Stephen in Rome who owns 5 GSM phones.
Would like to know for the people that travel a lot, which cell can you recommend for me, when I'm travel all over, like France, Italy, India, Japan, China, Australia, Mexico, Chille.
