Coffeedude,

Sanyo SCP-4000 is a Dual-mode, Dual-band (1.9GHz CDMA /
800MHz AMPS) handset. Please note the following:

1. If you have been offered to upgrade the firmware / PRL,
make sure it is done properly. Reports suggest it may take
twice to do right.

2. Check the version of the firmware and the PRL (Preferred
Roaming List). The current PRL is 09 or 42011 and 38003 will
be fine in the West. This is important when you are
traveling across the country and go South of the border.
With so many changes in the wireless communication sector,
roaming partners and the service access keep changing.

3. Be aware the fact that there are many places in North
America only having 800MHz CDMA service. If your handset is
not a Tri-mode, Dual-band model, you will very likely be
stuck with Analog service at best or even no service at all.
