*bzzzt* wrong, i'm afraid. The e63 has 3G but NOT HSDPA.

According to the specs page, looks like 3G

I find it very strange that the NAM version of the E63 is 3G and the Euro version is not. I would go with what is widely known which is this is a quad band Edge device.

I have one, so I know that the E63 european model *is* 3g, 2100 MHz UMTS, along with being quad-band. I wanted one for travel in Japan.

GSMarena.com lists this phone with 3G:

At $280, this is pretty attractive, and that's coming from an SE-fanboy who has never even considered getting a phone of this form factor.
