This BlackBerry is the CDMA/GSM version that will allow Verizon to carry a “World Phone” BlackBerry.  This unit supports the European and Asian GSM Frequencies (900/1800), and would allow roaming outside the North American continent (we’re on the 850/1900 freqs).

If you’re a Verizon subscriber and have been waiting for a 8700 series, your wait is over.
