GSM technology can work with 4 frequencies: 850/900/1800/1900 Mhz.
Some GSM phones support all the bands or frequencies, or just a couple. A dual band phone supports only two, usually 900/1900 or 850/1900. A tri-band phone supports three bands, either 850/1800/1900 or 900/1800/1900. A quad-band phone supports all GSM bands. Quad-band phones are able to work with any and all GSM service providers.
On the other hand, GSM service providers support just a subset of all the GSM bands available. Before buying a GSM phone, make sure the phone supports at least one of the bands that your GSM service provider supports. Contact your service provider Rogers, Fido, Cingular, T-Mobile.

Q:
My GSM service provider does not have sim cards, why?
A sim card is a small flat rectangle plastic that contains a microchip. This microchips is the heart of your phone, it contains your phone number, your address book, and the necessary information for your phone to work. All sim cards look the same, but the microchip inside is different for every GSM service provider.
