It is most likely CDMA since Bell is just beginning GSM service, I thought. But yes...just check if it has a SIM card.

"Compatible with the EVDO network"

The EVDO network is the CDMA.

Just to beat the dead horse some more. I am on Bell and all their phones were CDMA until the rollout of HDSPA\+ just a few months ago.

I also have the Diamond and can confirm without a doubt it is the CDMA version.

Re: how to tell if CDMA or GSM using Bell in Ont

Also you can tell by the little icon. If it's an Ev or 1x, it's CDMA. If it's E, H, etc., it's GSM.
