CDMA lets everyone transmit at the same time.
here's a good example

GSM is a network used by cingular, t mobile and att.

supposidly u can carry over ur number now. but you will have to pay a fee every month. but thats less than a dollar a month
you also forgot the say that CDMA is digital while TDMA is analog which is a big differentiating factor.

but CDMA is pretty much dead anyways

Why are the cell phone makers trying to make better and better games for the cell phone? Why not try to make it better for what I want it for... making a phone call.

How do I go about getting a kickass phone? Do I just bring my old one to the store and say "I wanna trade this in for Kickass Phone #771982737"?
