I was about to respond to Andrew Stewart the retard. Everyone knew that Verizon wireless needed to have the same technology as their parent company vodafone. so when they made the announcement last year, it wasnt a surprise. it will be a very difficult task. The GSM is more superior in Europe due to more spectrum space. Nicely said THE ROCK. I was about to respond to Andrew Stewart the retard.

“LTE is a fourth-generation wireless data system expected to be the next step up in speed and capacity for carriers using the GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) platform, which is dominant in most of the world. ”

“On September 20, 2007, Verizon Wireless had announced a joint effort with the Vodafone Group to transition their networks to the 4G standard LTE and on November 29, 2007, Verizon Wireless announced that they would start LTE trials in 2008.

Both Telus and Bell have also announced they will be upgrading to GSM HSPA in their path to GSM LTE.

Sprint is upgrading to WIMAX

TATA, Shyam Systema, Reliance are in the process of upgrading to GSM technologies.

Time to face the truth and facts. Cdma technology is the past, the open, global standard GSM-LTE is the future, all this is good for consumers and good for RIM too, less models.

I debated it for a short while because I had the 8320, and thought, "what could possibly be *that* different." I found out this past weekend when I powered up the device. Immediately you notice how truly awesome this phone is. The resolution is breathtaking. The form and construction tight, sleek and sexy. The processor is fast, and the browsing therefore makes up for lack of 3G. All-in-all, I'm so happy to say goodbye to the plastic'y 8320. I upgraded, and it was the best decision I made.

The processor on the Bold is faster than that of the 8900, however due to the updated specs and a much bigger flash memory, the 8900 runs faster than all the blackberry at the moment. UNTIL 3G IS ADDED TO IT. Actually Chisim.
