Looking for Dual-Mode (802.11 and GSM/CDMA) phone

If anyone knows about a dual-mode phone - except the Motorolla one -
that is commercially available I'd love to know about it

Thanks to all

The Motorola demands 11a protocol doesn't it? Not sure about this one.

Ouch! Doesn't that pretty much rule out using one of those phones (for
web/email) in a public hotspot?
The few hotspots that I use my PDA at (library, bar 'n grill sports
restaurant, etc), are 802.11b/g. Haven't come across any that are
802.11a...

I'm using 802.11a (along with 802.11b/g) at home, but no way would I
consider an 802.11a gadget intended for it's main use to be outside of the
home..

Thanks for the info. I would be very surprised if the Motorolla uses
802.11a because of the power consumption of the "a" chipsets. Unless
there is a new chipset out there this is probably not correct. Of
course, I could always be wrong - and often are...
Thanks again
