The visorphone is 900/1900 Mhz.
It connects to European providers that uses 900MHz carrier, and US providers that uses 1900MHz carriers.
You can not connet to carriers that supports only 1800MHz and I dubt that someone will produce a visorphone 900/1800MHz...

The Asian market mostly has for 900/1800 services, though they do have 900/1900. I think the VisorPhone lost a lot of market here right from the beginning. They did it with the new Treos though, and it's actually selling here.

Personally, didn't like the Treos. Screen smaller, but still too big as a phone. No color. Too expensive. Too heavy. Cover doesn't flip completely out of the way too.. Of course, it's very functional, but ergonomically... not to good in my hands..

Anyone else agree with me? If not, don't reply pls.
