Does Treo have a slot for SIMS? I don't currently own one but am thinking about getting one. Today I saw one of my buddies who has Verizon as his carrier. I didn't see any slot for SIMS behind the battery housing. Is there a slot for it?

I'm going to use it overseas too. Just want to be sure I can just get a different SIMS and drop it right in when I'm there.

Thanks,

Your friend has Verizon phone which uses CDMA technology. T-Mobile, like Cingular, uses GSM. GSM wireless carriers use SIM cards. So, you'd need a GSM based Treo in order to use with T-Mobile. Current GSM models include the 600,650,750v. There are rumored releases of Cingular Treo 750 and Treo 680. Since they probably won't be released on T-Mobile, you'd need an "unlocked" model allowing you to use any SIM card. In your case, you'd use your T-Mobile SIM.

Hope this helps.
