- GSM is very limited, if at all existent (I found one network listed
as
planned for Sept 2003)
I was in Seoul a few weeks ago and my tri-band GSM handset couldn't
find any network. There may be GSM coverage somewhere, but it certainly
doesn't make itself easy to find.
- Some
handset -- i.e. no
CDMA roaming
- Many pages offer rentals
- Some providers appear to offer roaming using your GSM SIM card in a
Korean CDMA handset (unless I got that all wrong)
Google for Korean Cell Phones or Roaming in Korea for more info.
Otherwise, I am pretty sure you can get a phone
- Some pages claim not compatible with your US handset -- i.e. no
CDMA roaming
Ole,
I remember from the last time I worked on Korean CDMA systems they had
a different frequency (1700 MHz?).
