@coola: the sims btwn cdma phones should be interchangable unless they do what MTN did initially with the phones they sold, locking it to thier network.

@ abubakar:SE does or did make cdma phones,something like the T68i. I think either Reltel or some other network does allow for such phones.However I doubt if SE still makes this phones,perhaps it wasn't so profitable at the time.
@ all:What is/are the difference(s) btw cdma and wcdma?

Nah... it is $150 million dollars in the next 15 days. Glo and MTN should pay without any problems. But Celtel and Alheri Engineering.... that I cannot say.

Anyway, I see PNF activity zipping up again when "Free 3G" trials commence! I have not even bought my 3G phone yet. Ah! Free things.

@All I just landed PH today. I must have mentioned my desire to visit Bonny Island here sometime back. Well, 2moro I get to climb a boat and cruise down to the Island!

I have two choices: follow the commercial boats and risk being capsized or follow the Shell/NDDC ferries and risk being attacked by Sea Pirates (happened last week and two Policemen were killed).

And so... PRAY FOR ME O. If I don't make it, I bequeth all my online properties to all of you. No fighting, please.

But, jokes apart, I am a little apprehensive even though I am visiting Classmate who is one of the Joint Task Force Naval Guys. Oh the joys of being a bachelor! Adventure! (Stupid?) Risks! Excitement!

I will never try this when Mrs Coola arrives.

@ all:Which network is Alheri Engineering? Or is that the name the Dubai entrant is trading under?
re.>@ all:What is/are the difference(s) btw cdma and wcdma?...If cdma is CODE DIVISION MULTIPLE ACCESS & wcdma is WIDE CODE DIVISION MULTIPLE ACESS,shouldn't it be an improvement on cdma whislt still allowing the use of cdma phones? I ask,as gsm SIMs work on 3G phones...

Alheri Engineering is a subsidiary of the Dangote group

My brother, I have tried to reason it out that same way, but find it difficult to understand. Read up on it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W-CDMA

@Coola: take pictures, and post them here for us to see, but shine ya eyes o
@Mariwun: I can only speak for myself, but I dont see anyone worthy of my vote amongst the lot so I will not be voting.
Back to tech gist, I got a Celtel SIM with which I've been browsing, (Don't ask me how, cos I aint telling) Now, this is the life. Fast GPRS for free and on the go!!! what is better than that?
