A while ago I saw this item on ebay:
eBay: Audiovox xv6700 PDA CDMA Ruim, NEW Accesories Indonesia (item 250119857484 end time Jun-04-07 06:52:55 PDT)
of course, it immediately caught my eye. I messaged the seller to ask if it was really RUIM, since it said verizon. The seller simply said: "its a used Verizon phone, now no more. you cannot activated the phone on verizon. I am sure you cannot use the phone in US. thanks for your questions". By any chance, was that you?

This is very good proof that CDMA phones are interchangeable between carriers. If only there was enough motivation for legal action. But either people dont even know about this issue, or they roll over and convince themselves that these wireless giants are doing nothing unfair. Great work. How did you figure this out? Would it work on any apache?
