Personnally I hope this is true, It sucks for bell user (and telus as well) who need to call or go online and wait 24 hours to get there ISN change just to get a new phone when you can just wake up in the morning and pick the phone that you wanna use for that specific day (remember dont take your expensive blackberry or iphone to go ski or snowboard!). ;-p]]>Apr 4th 2009 1:40PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/

What will all those tradesmen do without their chunky old-school motorola and nokia handsets???]]>Jul 6th 2007 12:13PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/
CDMA-to-GSM isn't unthinkable... it's been done in Australia and most of South America. And the sky didn't fall when North American TDMA nets switched to GSM (even though some folks still cling on to their TDMA sets today...)

Whether it's worth the investment here, wow... I have no idea. If they do end up doing it, let's have it be 3G -- a CDMA-to-WCDMA switch.]]>Jul 6th 2007 4:03PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/Jul 17th 2008 11:29AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/07/06/will-bell-canada-buyout-lead-to-a-gsm-conversion/Aug 8th 2007 9:53PM
