Should be able to talk your way out of it if you were told you could use it internationally and you can't. Looks like you need to cross to the iPhone side...trust me, you'll never look back!!

Talked to Verizon Tech Support, and lots of others, and all recommend the Newer Later Greater Droid PRO... "It's the International Phone"

So, I'm due for a new every two phone, so... "hook me up."

they did... all the bells and whistles...

Guess What... It doesn't frigg'in work...

I've tried to hook up Automatically, CDMA, GMS, UMTS etc....

Nothing works, except for the guys with me that all have T-Mobile and AT&T Phones, cheap ones and iphone 4's etc... They all have great signals, text, talk, etc... Guess where I'm going when I get home... I'm taking this POS back to Verizon, getting out of the contract, somehow... and going to AT&T... I left them nine years ago... but I guess I'm headed back....

What do you do, sit on it to see out... lol, j/k,

I seriously considered it a few weeks ago when I got this phone, but since my wife is on the school plan and we get to use the family discount, I stayed with Verizon... oh well, lesson learned... We'll see how it works out...

And I don't need to see out. There's an app for that.

Robert - I feel your pain, I have AT&T and can report that it is great as long as you are not in the states trying to get service. It should work fine for you in Brazil but you may want to find something else when you get home.

Would Cricket work out of the country? It should. And you could keep your Verizon plan for a while. But a cheapy phone...add minutes to it which you only use in Brazil, use the Verizon plan back here in SA.

We have a senior mechanical supervisor on-board helping rebuild one of our EMD's... engines... and he and I were talking about my Camaro... imagine that...

He asked... "Is it a hybrid...???"

My response... "yup... it'll smoke your Vette and still get over 20 miles per gallon..."

He got

and walked out...

Oh everything is fine, came through the storms well. Others were not so lucky. Alot of damaged areas, been trying to help out where I can but after having elbow surgery my helping out has been limited. Just really sad to see and makes you Thankful for what you have. The really sad part is Children's Hospital and the children there who have lost parents. It will break your heart.

Little League has dominated my time lately but it is almost over, been keepin track though just not posting too much.

Dr Jkel is fine and I should pick it up this week after the latest cosmetic mods, Spoiler, LED's, engine stuff etc.....

Be safe.
