I still prefer the reliability of the CDMA networks here in the US, so I think using the GSM pre-paid SIM will be a very RARE occurance.

+1 on the reliability of CDMA in the States.
Boy my friend visited from Chicago couple weeks ago, he just keep dragging about how fast his HSDPA/UTMS is on his ATT Fuze in Chicago.
So one night we were driving down the 101, near downtown, I said, hey why don't you do a test, on both mine and yours (I had a Sprint Touch Pro back then) and to his surprise, my CDMA TP outperform his GSM TP speed by almost twice, on multiple tests.
Oh yeah he complains about the voice quality on the GSM here in SoCal.
I just tell him, "GSM Capacity".
Anyway back to the subject matter, I certainly hope the HardSPL will be done and all the chains on our TP2s will be cut. At least for now, it won't ask for my to put in an unlock code once I travel to China in less than 2 weeks and use a local prepaid SIM card.
