GSM is the World standard, as well as being able to do data and voice simultaneously...So, IMHO, it is superior to CDMA. The problem is that AT&T has not invested enough $$$ in their pitiful network, so many AT&T subscribers (myself included), have had a dreadful experience with AT&T. I routinely experience dropped calls, failed calls, poor voice quality, and very slow 3g. AT&T would rather spend millions on TV commercials with Luke Wilson trying to convince viewers that AT&T is not as bad as many say, instead of putting that money into improving their network....Smoke and mirrors. For those of us on AT&T who experience daily substandard service, we know that Luke and AT&T are lying.
If the Passion/Dragon/Gphone is only available in GSM (AT&T, T-Mobile), I will port to Verizon and get an Eris. The new Google phone can be the best smartphone in the World, but it is useless to me if it can only be used on a crappy network like AT&T's.
