I was just wondering if any one has got a hold of one of the cheap clone phones from china?

It's only recently I've seen them compatible (so it says...) with CDMA.

I had a GSM Malasian 'Xplore G88' some time ago and it was a good pda other than the screen was too small. Worked right out of the box once the sim card was inserted.

Not sure how this import would work with spring as it's definately not going to be on their listing.

I go back to Europe a lot and I like the idea of being able to add my pay as you go sim cards when back over there.

Actually I would like to know this also.

Especially with CDMA phones that have to be activated by Sprint or VZ etc.

Will Sprint activate these phones made in China?

I guess someone has to get one and find out!

I tried to activate a Verizon phone on sprint for my wife as the sprint samsung she has is awfull, they said that tey didn't recognise a the ESN so couldn't (or more likely wouldn't) activate it.
