Anyone care to tell me if both the DX and DXi have 3G/GPRS connections, and if so, any means of differentiating them?

Evidently, the million $ question is to figure out whether a US DX with 3G/GPRS can do global wireless...

Thanks!

The US DX is not capable of international connection.

Both have 3G, but only the Int'l DX is capable of international connection. The difference is determined by the first few digits of the serial number:

US DX = B004 (Sprint)

Int'l DX = B005 (AT&T)
