I have a 2yr contract with Verizon Wireless, but I am interested in the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 for AT&T, I saw some unlocked ones online if I bought one would I be able to use it with my existing account? and if so would it still have all the features such as timescape and all that good stuff?

also, is it legal and should I let the Verizon people know it's an unlocked Xperia X10 that I will be using instead of my Verizon phone? lol might be a dumb question

Thanks
 
No it will not work, as Verizon uses CDMA technology, while ATT uses GSM.
 
Glad I asked befor I spent the 500 for the phone haha
Thanks

Do you know if it would work with cricket?
 
but if you want you can get one cdma htc... there are many with the same specs of xperia x10 and cdmas phone are cheaper!!!...
