Ah. The truth hurts, doesn't it? And you respond by sticking your
fingers in your ears and shouting LALALALALALALALALALA
LALALALA so you
can't hear the one who speaks the truth.

CDMA is really spreading across Asia. I think it's because the
population density is so high that bandwidth utilization has become very
important, and CDMA is much more efficient than GSM.

Still, when traveling in Taiwan, I use prepaid GSM because it's much
cheaper than roaming on CDMA. If I had AT&T or T-Mobile GSM I would
still choose to use prepaid GSM in Taiwan.

The other poster, jgrove24, is particularly misinformed about Korea,
because it's actually GSM phones that don't work at all in Korea.
