Verizon has a number of Dual and Quad band phones in addition to CMDA on them. My AT&T reception is terrible at home and would switch to Verizon tomorrow if GSM was also available on the I-Phone.

But it's good to have the roaming if you really need it. Just be aware of the cost per minute if you answer or place a call.
