Can i use my European gsm in Nicaragua?

I don't think Nicaragua has GSM yet, I believe they are still TDMA.

However if you have a gateway phone (both TDMA & GSM) then you should be OK.

HTH.

That depends on two things:

1. Is your phone a tri-band GSM? Nicaragua's two GSM carriers use 1900 Mhz,
not found in Europe.

2. Does your provider have a roaming agreement with either of the companies in
Nicaragua? They should be able to tell you. If they don't, and you have an
unlocked tri-band, you could buy a pre-paid SIM card for local use.

Keep in mind both systems there are rather young and coverage is pretty much
limited to the western side of the country around Managua.
