Please Login to Remove! Hi, all, I just ordered a 8830 from Sprint and I'm going to a GSM covered country right away. The question is -- will Sprint's 8830 work in GSM without first being activated in the U.S? My feeling is it should .... I know it's a little strange... thanks for the help in advance!
