At least I can take my Kaiser to Japan and use it there, depending on SIM availability.]]>Oct 29th 2007 5:07AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/1. Japanese 3G all runs on 2100MHz. Even the CDMA-EVDO, which no other CDMA country does.
2. Non-standard ESNs. Their CDMA ESNs run 5 letters and 6 digits (for example, an old phone of mine has the ESN of STSBT837195 with no decimal equivalent).

But do notice that Sony-Ericsson makes CDMA phones for Japan. They'd blow the competition out of the water if they re-entered the US CDMA market with phones like those.]]>Oct 30th 2007 10:26AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/
Not a bad thing, but it definitely keeps us behind those who are willing to pony up.]]>Oct 29th 2007 12:22PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/Oct 28th 2007 9:47AMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/Oct 29th 2007 7:36PMhttp://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/10/27/kddi-aus-autumn-and-winter-2007-collection/
Also the argument Fyre throws at that he/she "has friends" and "has talked to people" holds no water. So you've talked to 10 people that are all from the same company or have all the same backgrounds . . . fantastic. And the point you make about the Bell companies being run by dinosaurs is also irrelevant. How old exactly do you think these people are? It has nothing to do with the average age of engineers or anyone. What it has to do with is control.]]>Oct 29th 2007 12:24PM
