The Storm is one of the few Verizon phones with is capable of running on a SIM card. This phone has been unlocked and is configured for T-Mobile currently. I can change the configuration to AT&T upon request. The phone does have a bad ESN, so it cannot be activated with Verizon.

The phone looks close to new, with only a couple very small wear marks on the casing. Included with the phone is the original box, software CD, home charger (With international adapter) and USB cable.

$275 shipped within the US. International buyers are welcome to inquire, however you would be responsible for configuring the data services. Feel free to contact me with questions or for pictures. I might be up for a trade, depending on the item.

I checked where I live and unfortunately the Storm is only available here on CDMA and not on GSM. I am hoping the Tour will be supported on GSM when it comes out. ... JDH

The 9530 is what's called a "world phone"... it has both CDMA and GSM radios, so that it can be used on CDMA carriers in North America and GSM worldwide. If the GSM radio is unlocked, it can accept a SIM card from any GSM carrier.

You pretty much summed it up. The phone is only offered by Verizon, but the phone itself is capable of being used with T-Mobile or AT&T. If you have either of those carriers, this Storm will work for you.
