It is a shame that the P1 isn't available in a version which supports GSM 850. I had a P910a, which ran 850 and EDGE, and it was the best phone I have ever had. The 910a was never picked up by any US carriers and I think that the customization the US carriers want is probably cost prohibitive for SE in the big picture. SE seem to be disappearing from the US altogether as it seems ATT no-longer offers them (perhaps something to do with Walkman vs. iPhone).
I must say though, that of all the phones I have had (MOT, NOK, SE, HTC) the SE's have been, by far, the best. I hope they come back to the US with a P1a very soon.
