I was under the impression from years ago the reason that a lot of US mobile manufacturers didn't have phones in the rest of the world (China excluded) was that they used a frequency set that the rest of the world (Europe, Asia, Africa, Australisia) didn't. Maybe the question should be: Why hasn't the US adopted the world standards instead?
