John, no offense taken. I do hope that Nokia seriously considered what frequencies to support and that they considered a lot more than T-Mobile vs AT&T as the phone is sold in many countries. I believe that many more Communicators sold in Europe than in the US and it will likely be the same for the N900. I would never suggest Nokia not support T-Mobiles frequencies which are more common in Europe but I do not understand why they chose not to have quad band WCDMA in the N900 when it is possible.
I wish I did not to have to choose between a true linux phone without 3G or an Android phone with 3G. Ten times the bandwidth is a big draw.
It would be nice if someone at Nokia would explain their decision. I would not expect any explanation for a normal phone however this is a phone that runs open source software. I hope that Nokia will be more open in the future.
In the near future I would really like to get my hands on the phone to be able to contribute to the development and bug fixing efforts.
