What's the difference between GSM and GSM-r2 for iPhone 4?

I understand GSM means it has a sim card, but what's the difference between GSM and GSM-r2 for iPhone 4?

iPhone 4, iOS 6.1.2

Yeah, wasn't really planning to buy, I'm happy enough with the 3GS, eventually I will get a 5. Just checking out prices and it made me wonder. I haven't found much through google either, especially explaining anything, but there is a reference to gsm-r2 (separate from gsm) on a jail break download site. Still have no idea what the difference is, but there seems to be something to it.
