Despite the fact that GSM is better than CDMA because of its overwhelmingly widespread reach, there are still some holdouts. TechFaith's Twins comes to the rescue.

This smartphone accepts one SIM card and one CDMA card, or two SIMs. Users can thus keep two different phone lines active, without turning off the phone and swapping cards. The appropriately named Twins runs on Windows Mobile 6 Pro (Pocket PC) and features a long-lasting 1500 mAh battery. Other features include a 2.0 megapixel camera, Bluetooth 2.0 with A2DP and touch-sensitive 2.8" color display. It also supports MP3s and MPEG4 videos, as well as video calls.

TechFaith promises shipping to Europe and Southeast Asia come end of November. No pricing info available as of yet.

Thanks to the TechFaith PR for the heads-up.
