Cellular Phone Forum / General / GSM / August 2004GSM satellite phone - US
Does anyone know of a brand of phone that is both GSM and satellite available in the US? I know Qualcomm has a "tri-mode" phone that is Analog cellular, digital cellular and satellite but I want one with GSM cellular. Thanks! > Does anyone know of a brand of phone that is both GSM and satellite > available in the US?

AFAIK, there are no satellite phones in the US that work on both GSM and satellite systems. All the GSM/Sat phones I know of are GSM-900. Also, which US GSM carriers have roaming agreements with any satellite carriers? None, that I know of. In fact, if you have one of those Globalstar CDMA/Sat phones, you don't roam on either system. If you have a satellite account you have to get a seperate cellular account and switch between the two. (Last time I checked). How much sense does that make?
