I can corroborate that report. Bought my FR from Belgium, so I presume
its the 900/1800/1900 version, but I haven't found any way to verify
that. It works fine in San Francisco, CA and Chicago and central
Illinois on Simplemobile (which uses T-Mobile's network).

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the change in tone, for me it was more then welcome.
I have been to the USA with my FR and had no problem whatsoever in
connecting to the network, also the gprs worked just fine.
I did bought a USA sim card on ebay, just to cut the costs.
I traveled California, Nevada, Montanna, Sout Dakota and Colorado on the
T-Mobile network.
Kind regards,
Ed

Hi folks,
A change of tone for the list, for now.
I'm going to the USA soon, and would ideally like to use my GTA02
there. It is a European 900/1800/1900MHz version (I presume - I
bought it 2nd hand - is there an easy way to check?). Can I just use
any network in the USA, and it will just register with the 1900MHz
band and all just work? [0] implies that would work, but [1] implies
it may depend on the area of the USA, and I lack the knowledge to
readily figure it out.
Any clues?
Thanks,
Nick
