iPhone 4S CDMA Roaming

Question

iPhone 4S CDMA Roaming

Will the new iphone 4S allow for domestic CDMA roaming when a GSM (AT&T) customer? The building I work in does not get cell service so they have installed CDMA (Verizon) repeaters in the building. If you have a Verizon phone you can get service anything else and you are out of luck. It is repeating the 800mhz CMDA band. I am an AT&T customer and I am wondering if the new 4S phone will work on the repeaters in the building via network roaming.

iPhone 4, iOS 4.3.3, iPhone 4S iOS 5

No. It's not going to work. You cannot roam from a GSM network to a CDMA network, even if the phone has the hardware to work on either. The phone would have to be set up specifically for The CDMA network you want to join.
