All lock-ins and no portability. http://t.co/JNpMlkDJ

I just wrote about this last week. It’s shocking that the GSMA hasn’t stepped in and standardized the bands to be used for GSM, 3G, HSDP etc. Not that I think they should control it but I think TMO for example should have to provide some bandwidth even if it’s rented to work on the more common 3G bands.

If the tech blogs would list the no-contract price of the phones as the price instead of listing the subsidized price, people would have a true cost of the phone. Pentaband 3G, unlocked phones are really worth it when you consider that besides postpaid plans you can also use them with prepaid plans which might save even more.
