Paladin, welcome to BlackBerryForums.com

The Verizon Wireless Blackberry 8830 is the first hybrid BlackBerry device.
It's both CDMA and GSM.
CDMA within the United States and some other CDMA covered areas, and GSM roaming abilities while traveling abroad in a GSM covered area. It has a SIM card for the GSM services.
