Not sure if this is true or not... but people hear things through the grapevine...

I have not heard. Mine is the 3G, and is not the absolute latest. I figured I would wait for at least one more release before upgrading, as long as this one is holding out. It does fine at this point for my needs, and the ATT coverage up here is as good or better than the Verizon coverage, though both have holes. Up here in the mountains, it is a "pick your holes" situation. Meanwhile the phone and apps I use work great for my needs for now.

The truth is out, perhaps. This is the interweb, after all :)

Generally, no.

That seems like a very bad deal with the phone company.Why would they not get the roaming rights sorted out? Of course, I can understand data traffic prices can vary. Like for me it's 9,99 a month for unlimited data in any network in Finland, but the price can change a lot if I travel in other countries.

But I just checked that even my phone works in most networks in the U.S. if not all, not sure(?), but there's a list of providers...Bell, AT&T, Manx, T-Mobile...what is your provider? I would be really pissed if I traveled somewhere and suddenly my phone would not work. I haven't even thought of it being possible it wouldn't work in some network.

The calls seem really expensive though if I use my phone in the U.S....for instance in AT&T network calls vary from 0,36 to over a dollar a minute(!) so in that sense I'd rather keep my phone use to minimum over there...my fixed price is six cents a minute. Hardly ever get it past a few bucks a month, plus the 9,90 for data. People usually call me before I call them so my phonecalls are almost nonexistant.

I used to have a cell deal in which I actually got a little money towards my phone bill every time I received calls...but they realized it was a bad deal indeed as they ended up owing me money for my subscription, LOL...wriggled out of it by offering me some good deal on something, I forget what.

Well, that does look very cool for when I need a new one!
