Think what you're asking. How could it possibly support both at once?

Oh, come on, you are applying a literal interpretation to the words. I'm
not asking for a phone that is *ACTIVE* in TDMA and GSM modes at the same
moment. I am asking for a phone that can support both standards, and
transparently to the user choose the appropriate technology for a given call
at a given place.

Say what you mean. There are plenty of people who do not have clue #1
and do ask questions such as you asked.

The AT&T guy was misleading you, but not really.

Does it SUPPORT TDMA and GSM and the same time? YES. A GAIT phone such as
this one works with TDMA, GSM, and Analog.

Will it work both the TDMA and GSM at the exact same time? NO. It can not
connect to two different networks at the same time. It is an either or
thing.

So yes you can get the GSM network as well as the TDMA network on your
phone, just not at the same time.

The T62u also supports 800MHz analog, but requires the "SmartBack" accessory
(IIRC) for bluetooth.

At the AT&T phone store they claimed that with the Nokia 6340i that it
supports *either* TDMA or GSM, but not both simultaneously. Is this
correct?
