In the past I owned the G1 GSM model. I did purchase the AT&T sim card and was receiving GSM text 2g or 3G can not remember. Anyway the feature was really nice to have. I have noticed the G1 no longer lists the GSM model option. The antenna was retained for protection of the knobs is what i was told. Can anyone confirm if this feature is truly gone from current models and never to return ? I know we all are waiting on unication to provide the p25 phase 2 upgrade which is to me the very needed upgrade for where i live. But I would love to see Unication bring the text message feature back in the G1 and G5 , hopefully to work on the 4G LTE networks of GSM or CDMA. I would love to have only one pager to grab. That would be be the holy grail to me my Dual Band vhf/700-800 mhz analog / digital phase 1 and 2 plus receive text message from local fire dept dispatches and IPN dispatch alerts. Wow! what a pipe dream. crazy thing is its really almost there.
