Global = CDMA + GSM
If you are going to travel internationally where there is no CDMA network. Your SIM card must be installed for this to function.
1XEV = Verizon's 3G CDMA network.
If you are staying in the USA then you can flip or remove your SIM card (since you won't need GSM) and have the phone only work off 3G CDMA.
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

I think the logic is that your phone won't be trying to find a GSM signal...it will only seek CDMA signals.
