Boost mobile has two types of service, CDMA and IDEN. So technically its CDMA and TDMA, they do not have GSM service.
No. Colombia uses GSM. Boost blackberry is CDMA.

GSM = Global System for Mobile communications. CDMA = Code Division Multiple Access.
Yes, this is a GSM issue. The Motorola RAZR V3 is a GSM phone, and it requires a compatible GSM network to function properly. Boost Mobile primarily operates on a CDMA network, which is incompatible with GSM devices like the RAZR V3. Therefore, using a Boost Mobile SIM card in this phone will not work.
The Torch is a GSM phone and Boost is on a CDMA network; so probably never. If they make a CDMA Torch, it would still take at least two years before coming to a discount network.
No you cannot. Although there are some phones that support CDMA aswell as GSM.

CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) and GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) are two different mobile communication technologies that use incompatible network protocols. A CDMA SIM card is designed specifically for CDMA networks and cannot be used on GSM networks, which rely on a different signaling and communication method. Therefore, if you try to use a CDMA SIM in a GSM device, it will not work because the device cannot recognize or process the CDMA signal.
If the unlocked phone is an IDEN network phone then yes. If the unlocked phone is a GSM phone, meaning it was previously locked to a GSM carrier (i.e. AT&T, T Mobile) then it would not work on Boost Mobile as this carrier uses a different technology, which is not compatible with GSM based phones.
2G introduced data services for mobile like SMS text message wich is irrelevant of it being cdma/gsm.
This depends on where you are, but 9 times out of 10 CDMA will provide better coverage than GSM, especially inside buildings that GSM can't penetrate. GSM= work with SIMcards ( ATT,T-mobile) some areas have better coverage than CDMA (Verizon, Sprint, Alltel ect), the Problem with GSM is that its bandwith is not as fast as CDMA since Data travels quicker on CDMA's devices due to less steps to follow : GSM= Data - SIMcard - device= response CDMA= Data - Device= Response (wider bandwith as well) so i would say that CDMA is better than GSM. Although it has been very widely reported that GSM carriers have faster speeds than CDMA carriers. Such as AT&T has far faster speeds than CDMA networks while covered.
