    I'm confused about the specific bands that T-Mo is using.

    I would like to purchase an HTC Touch Pro with the following bands:

    Network HSDPA/WCDMA: Europe/Asia: 900/2100 MHz, Up to 384 kbps up-link and 7.2 Mbps down-link speeds
    Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE: Europe/Asia: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz (Band frequency and data speed are operator dependent.)

    Will I be able to use T-Mobile's 3G network?

    Sorry, that wont work for the 3G speeds. The US AWS band 3G uses 1700 for uplink and 2100 for downlink, native only to North America. Our frequency are different than anyone else in the world.

    Thanks. Guess I'll just have to wait it out. Not thrilled about the Android phone. it has some good stuff, but I use my Eten for a lot of things that you cannot get on the Android. The Eten is slowly dying, and if I'm going to replace it, I want one that can access the 3G network.
