I'm trying to find out if this phone will appear with either 850Mhz or 1900 Mhz 3G frequencies. Anyone know anything about that? The official site says there will be 850Mhz for Australia and the FCC in the USA has passed 2 versions with those bands. But so far, no online store has them

    Work for a certain high street chain selling phones and have had a good hands on with the wave. So far, great phone but wondering why it freezes when pausing on BBC iPlayer and Youtube...
    Had the same problem persistently and wondering if anyone else is having this problem. It freezes, and battery has to be taken out after pausing any streamed video...
    Anyone else having this problem cos its putting me off an otherwise amazing phone!!

      Hotchips, 30 May 2010Hey Moan, I read the Web browsing could be better with zoom... morewhen you want to zoom in on the web you can do that wit you to fingers like iphone!and you can put your finger on the screen and go forward and back it realy easy!
      the only thing i found so far that a bit slowe that the facebook apliction it can be very slow to log out an log in!
      and somtime when you scrol fast in you'r contact's screen can bug a bit!
      but that's normal for a captive touchscreen!.
      but for the rest no problems found yet

                        Hi, I'm from Belgium and when everything goes right, I get my wave next tuesday. I have 1 important question to those who already use the wave (specialy people from Belgium?...): I have a pre-payed card and I reload my card on the dialing pad with: #124#... can I do this with the OS Bada of the wave?

                        thx for answering
