These are questions you should be asking your current telecom company.
But I think it would be safe to assume that you would be better off getting a contract with a Korean telecom company. |

this would be insanity. i did this when i first came here because my work required me to. i did use the phone for roaming around the world quite a bit because i traveled often and i would regularly get 400 dollar cell bills. i would have dropped it if i had the choice.
for personal use i had and have a korean cell phone. pretty cheap and great service and unlike the us providers, unlimited usage on data with no stupid caps. from someone who's been there, it would be absolutely a terrible idea to do try and use a att phone here on att international roaming. |

2x as fast as iphone 4 and 7x better graphics with the best camera around. I think its a nice upgrade I also heard they have the untethered jailbreak out now. |
