Their excuse for using analog cellular is that it has the widest coverage in the United States, but there's no reason it can't be dual mode analog PLUS digital (GSM [T-Mobile, AT&T, Cingular] and/or CDMA [Verizon, Sprint PCS]).
Besides, analog cellular will be phased out soon.
It appears that they may already have corrected a shortcoming of the "3-button" OnStar system--they've added a numeric keypad to the new 9-3. With the 9-5's 3-button system, it's impossible to enter touch tones (for voicemail or whatever).
