There are two distinct versions. It's likely that the first version
would be sold by AT&T Wireless and cingular in the US since both use
850 and 1900. The second version would likely be sold in Europe &
Asia since 900 and 1800 are the predominant frequencies used there.
The first version is really for the Americas since some 1800 is used
in central and south America. 900 is only used in two places that I
know of in the Americas in Cuba and in Venezuela. There may be one or
two others.

The Nokia website <http://www.nokia.com/nokia/0,8764,48663,00.html> lists only
"EGSM 900, GSM 1800, and GSM 1900".

Then there is
<http://www.nokiausa.com/phones/5140/0,2803,feat:1,00.html> :
GSM 850/1800/1900 MHz :)

The following makes clear that some phones come in two configurations:

thanks for your response. I think both version will do 1800/1900
in addition to one or the other low-bands 850 or 900. but I think
you're right, that there are two distinct version, the Eurasian
and the North American.

Thanks, -ingo
