They won't work for your GSM, unless frequncies are shifted for
the GSM frequency differences, so it's probably not much use, but
here are the tri-mode phones I'm aware of:

Motorola StarTAC 7868 (*)
Audiovox CDM 9000 (*)
Kyocera QCP-2035a
Nokia 5185i
Motorola Timeport
(*)=Can be used as a data connection for a laptop, with a seperate
kit.
