Cellphone lovers tend to buy more unlocked phones these days because many features are cut out of the phones purchased from carriers including Verizon, and T-Mobile. Reduction in features reduces the cost – and thereby allows them to sell phones for less or provide them at reduced costs when purchased with a service plan. CompUSA customers have had access to unlocked GSM phones for some time and with unlocked CDMA phones compatible with Verizon and Sprint on the horizon with their new ‘open platform’ approach – the advantages to no contract extension requirement and sometimes many more features – makes them a winner.
People who have purchased unlocked n-Series Nokia cellphones, specifically the models based on the Symbian Series 60 OS, including the N81, N81 8GB, N82, N95 and N95 8GB, were provided a treat today – their phones are completely ready to participate in the new Nokia N-Gage game download service.
