My Verizon phone worked in Cancun.

Honestly, I thought HTC was a cheap Chinese knockoff brand... Not something to even be considered? lol. But I guess that was not correct.

(This is what I get for being in Germany for 3 years while Cell Phone technology skyrocketed)

My point I was trying to make about Mexico...I'm on a Nationwide + Mexico plan with Verizon which covers my minutes; a somewhat discounted rate on my texts: .05/send, .20/receive...my data is $2/MB. This can still add up for me. My current LG Touch supports dual NAM's. So you could enter a 2nd number in the phone; but I don't believe Verizon allows this. When I used to work with Sprint, you had to have a special security code that was created by the Sprint system in order to program it. So many phones can be difficult to try and program yourself. Back to my point...if I could stick a sim card in it, I could take my Mexican cellphone # on the sim card and just pop it in when I go down to Mexico. That way I'm on a local much cheaper rate to call around Mexico on MY PHONE, and not my cheap regular Motorola Telcel. If I need to make calls back home, swap the sim cards. Does this make sense? By the way, picking up the the Droid Incredible on the 29th!

I have a LG Xenon from AT&T, not as good as the iPhone but it does have a lot of features and I'm happy with it.

A friend of mine just got the Droid and he thinks he is in heaven.

Don't those risks apply only if you actually use the thing as a phone?

I hate talking on the phone, but I love my droid
