Note that you have to distinguish between a quad band, which has all the
frequencies to operate as a phone in both the US and Europe, and a phone
that works as WCDMA/HSDPA in both the US and Europe. The E90, which I
bought and then returned, is quad band, but its 3G connection is only on
2100 MHz, hence not supported in the US.

A fact not mentioned in the description on the NokiaUS web site.
