Wait up just a second, let us get this straight: after years of teasing Americans with
3G smartphone after
sweet 3G smartphone -- none of which packed even a lick of compatibility on US bands -- Nokia's going to rock its newest undisputed king of the hill, the
E90, with every band we could possibly hope for? Of course, we don't want to count our chickens 'fore they're hatched
lest we get fooled again, but the presence of Nokia's latest QWERTY-based Communicator device in the FCC's trusted hands sporting WCDMA on the 850, 1700, and 1900MHz bands is a
very promising sign, indeed. As a refresher, T-Mobile will be launching
its WCDMA network this year -- the last of the four national carriers to go 3G -- on the freshly-minted 1700MHz band, leaving future users without much of a handset selection from which to choose (as in, zero devices so far and
few on the roadmap). But hey, with phones like this seemingly sitting in T-Mobile's pipeline, that's just fine by us.

ZOMG!!!!111oneoneoneshiftone
Although with WCDMA 850/1900 as well, it could be headed to ATTingular/Rogers as well. That makes me a happy panda.
I plan on getting that phone no matter what, but less money I will have to spend by being on T-Mobile is good for me!
I can not locate that document in the FCC papers that shows 1700 mhz, ayone?
I've looked through all of them and I can't see 1700MHz mentioned anywhere in any of the documents. I don't see any with a page corresponding to the above image. Have they removed the offending document? Or is the above image a screenshot of a hallucination?
