Steve has a T-Mobile G2, which will do 3G on 1700 + 2100MHz. It sounds like Movistar do 3G on 850/1900, so AT&T users will be fine, but T-Mobile users will end up with 2G. (No idea about what 1900 support is like in European phones, which tend to do at least 2100.) J. -- Revd Jonathan McDowell, ULC | "Reality Or Nothing!" -- Cold Lazarus
