i have been following this news very closely and hope that VZW will follow through on this. but what scares me is the big IF they do.
this indeed went through the FCC with a GSM radio and SIM slot. so the common assumption is that it has an LTE SIM and will have a GSM SIM.

i have a Droid 2 Global now and was hoping for this to be my next upgrade. it works great internationally with SIMs that I have tried., after getting the unlock codes from VZW. you also have to enter the carrier APN information.

The Droid 3 is Global but obviously not LTE and is on sale from them for $99 atm.

i personally don't see why this wouldn't work out of the box if unlocked just like any other VZW phone, but they say it won't.
perhaps someone is their global support (the only support that ever knows anything) can shed more light on this.
