but Cingular etc does have 3G/UMTS which is equivalent to Verizon/Sprint EVDO in speed. Problem is it hasn't rolled out everywhere yet but robustness is vague. To me, not having wifi ability is unacceptable though. I am still loving my Cingular 8125/HTZ wizard. It runs even better now after overclocking with the omapclock utility. Runs stable at 240mhz. being on WM5 platform makes it extremely hackable.

There are no SIM cards in CDMA phones.
When you refer to "unlock version", you are referring to GSM phones (e.g. Cingular, T-Mobile, etc.)
GSM also has a hi-speed data network, but apparently not as robust as CDMA's EV-DO (which allows one to surf the internet wirelessly at broadband speed).
