I have an old Pantech tx-130c phone that after charging I was surprised to find is still active with Telecom (with 12 cents on the account).
I am going to the USA where www.pagepluscellular.com has the best rate on cell phone services. They use the Verizon CDMA service and are happy to use my existing CDMA phone provided it is unlocked. I also have three other telecom CDMA handsets (family shifted to Vodafone), but I prefer sacrificing the clunky Pantech.
How can I determine if the handset is unlocked before I leave for the states? I rather not take four phones just to find out.
