And yes, I dont really know about the subscriber base when it comes to carriers in US. But having the vague idea that At&t enjoys the most substantial of those, it really should have had that feature. :) And my friend, I am not here to bash any brand but any sensible person can easily calculate the quality/price ratio when it comes to Iphone.

I checked out the link and I'd have to switch from AT&T to T-mobile to access 3G with the Wave. T-mobile is not real good in my area, not to say AT&T is much better, but I'll look into switching carriers. You think Samsung would have made this phone more U.S. friendly. There's a HUGE market. A lot of us know the truth about iPhones.

                      [deleted post]You are right. Though only partially, apple can very well make a cheap phone, or even better ! It can sell the exact handset (Iphone 4) with exact specifications and exact build quality at 1/5 its price, since the material used is of really substandard quality, so no financial losses there.

                      And the best part for them is that Apple fanboys will immediately kneel below them and cry HAILLLL !! before demonstrating their non-existent knowledge about technology, or even the products they love and accept that their iphone is indeed better than the cheaply available one. You should pitch that idea to Steve Jobs man !

I had wrongly assumed that 3G is available on all the available bands there. :) It would serve you good though if you just confirm it with them. Or you could go with Tmobile or other providers cant you ?

                              New Waver, 09 Jul 20103G not available in US ?? Are you kidding me ?? Yeah, AT&T in the US is 850 or 1900 over 2G. AT&T doesn't support HSDPA 900 or 2100 in the U.S. I'm no techie by any means, but that's my understanding. Am I wrong (hopefully)?
