Debating... Which Cell Phone?

Nokia 8265
or...
Nokia 8390

I'm not sure with some of the terminology with this cell phone technology.

The Nokia 8265 has

Wireless Network Capability
Technology -- TDMA 800/1900 and Analog 800
Mode --------- Tri Mode

and the Nokia 8390 has

Wireless Network Capability
Technology -- GSM 1900; GPRS
Mode --------- Single Mode

Whats the difference between the "technology" and "mode?"

Keeping my reception is important. How do are Nokia's Internal antennas?

I think the Nokia 8390 looks cooler, but some reviews say its extremely small. Which could have some disadvantages to it, I don't wanna lose the thing 😛.

I live in the Kissimmee/Orlando Area.

Any other comments or recommendations on cell phones? Anything I should keep in mind before purchasing a cell phone?


Thanks
Jonathan
 
AT&T is moving away from the TDMA Network and going with GSM. Most of the world is using GSM and other major US carriers are already GSM. I have a 6590 and like it a lot. I'd find out how the GSM coverage is in your area before I get it.
