It sounds as though Europe doesn't have the same issue as the States with carriers and networks that require different radios. I can use the same smartphone with T-Mobile and AT&T by swapping the SIM. Not so with Credo and Sprint; not so with Verizon either. Each group uses a different kind of network (though that's probably going to change eventually).
