The G1 works in Japan which requires full-band 2100. I would assume it’s full-band because the G1 and supposedly MyTouch are. The G1 works in Japan which requires full-band 2100.

T-Mobile us uses 1700 uplink, 2100 downlink. So the phone would also have to have the full "2100" band to be able to be used in Europe.

With that said, I'd rather see them relaunch the 8900 with the same look as the 8920 and just add 3G to it.

I'm actually leaning more towards the MyTouch though, because the BlackBerry market has really been left behind when it comes to applications that I'd actually use. And I have to agree with the others, it really does look cheaper than the 8900. UMA is a huge selling point but my UMA router fizzled out, and myfaves has been great. Nice!

I tried the new Curve down at Walmart today and I'm not a fan of the touchpad... I get more precision out of the trackball on my 8900, which really makes a difference when web browsing and selecting those "micro" text links on-screen. As for 3G, it's only good in center city areas in most of So Cal...No coverage in the Burbs, so it's not a viable selling point yet on Tmo's network. My Verizon Storm with 3G isn't all that much faster than EDGE on my 8900 anyway, so no I see no need to upgrade... once again, T-Mobile fails to score the premium BB devices the other carriers have (Bold, Storm, Tour). Ah well, at least the kids have those kewl Android phones to surf the web all day with on TMo! Why would anyone be jumping on this at this point without having even tried the touchpad?
