I thought it also could use 3G at least on AT&T's network.
I thought making a single phone that works for ~4,9 billion people(Europe, Asia, US T-Mo) compared to ~1 billion people in the Americas(AT&T frequencies) wouldn't count as "amazingly short-sighted".

That said, I'm pretty sure there will be Maemo devices with the 850 band available in the future too.

On topic: Does Amazon ever disclose sales numbers? It'd be interesting to know how many N900's have been pre-ordered, even a rough estimate. With that price in subsidised-with-contract-happy US the first/second place in unlocked is quite great.
