Not a big deal; at worst costs you a few bucks. While you'd have EDGE, you would not get 3GSM in the U.S. because the band is 2100 (Europe) not 850.

This Storm 2 is coming to Verizon. VZW had a U.S. exclusive on the Storm, so I'm not sure if another U.S. carrier will be an option. However, the long-rumored Storm 9520 may come to Canada. If so that would be a GSM phone. But even if the 9520 doesn't come to pass, it's a good bet there will be a GSM + WiFi Storm in the near future that can be unlocked to work with U.S. GSM carriers such as AT&T. In the meantime, a long wait for the Storm2. While September is possible, my gut feeling is more like December. We'll see ... WiFi is a welcome addition. This Storm 2 is coming to Verizon.

The reason I did not get a storm was because it does not have wi-fi.Now I can picture my self having a storm2 on metroPCs(carrier) with a $50 a month plan and being able to take the phone around the world with its GSM capabilities.
