International CDMA question


Hey everybody,
I'm trying to buy an LG Dare and it has CDMA 800 and 1900.

Problem is, I travel to countries that only have GSM available there.

I hope I dont look like an *** by asking so many questions, but I would appreciate if someone can answer these questions regarding CDMA:

1) Can I send text messages from America to countries that support GSM considering the fact that I have a CDMA phone?

2) If I travel to a country that only supports GSM, can I send texts back to America?

3) If I am in the country the only supports GSM, can I send texts in that country to other friends who live there?

Thing is, I rarely even call when I am in a foreign GSM country, but rather text as it is cheaper.

Please, if anyone has these answers, I would really appreciate it if you would inform me on this CDMA dilemma I am having.

Thanks

Ok, forget the above question.

Here it is in simpler terms:

If I have an LG Dare with CDMA 850, 1900 and it has EV-DO, will I be able to use the phone in GSM countries as long as I buy a their SIM card?
