verizon wireless mobiles in lebanon

hey guys
i just found an incredible phone [htc rezound] which is available for 299$ in Verizon wireless America
this phone was released 11/11/2011 the thing is that i was counting on buying it after i bricked my wave but I'm not planing on buying a phone for like 800$ and this is the price this phone is supposed to be when it will be released in Lebanon with the SIM unlock and everything!
I'm just asking if a Verizon phone bought from America or Canada can work in Lebanon in anyway?
thanks anyway guys :)

You must have the SIM unlocked for it to run, and if im not mistaken I think the software changes a bit as-well.
You should try unbricking your Wave, it's very easy just Google it and you will find TONS and tons of ways of doing it.

my wave is pretty bad damaged all it does is flashing a pink screen of death no more no less i send it to someone who hopefully knows how to fix it !
for the htc i read on google that it can work but im not sure i what this phone if its certain that it's just a sim unlock thing then i think i'll go for it

Verizon uses CDMA network. its not compatible with GSM networks around the world like the one we have here.

Yeah--that was what I was going to mention. If you want the phone, see if you can find out what it is for competitors in other countries or providers (try AT&T). General rules: Verizon and Sprint--CDMA, AT&T and T-Mobile use GSM.
