|

"This phone is not available for USA market though - it is GSM tri-band and supports only one American band (and 2 European bands). It could be used in USA but with difficulties - nowadays GSM operators in USA use 2 bands: GSM850 and GSM1800 and this phone supports only one of them"
The US utilizes GSM850 and GSM1900, NOT GSM1800 |

So you can't use the JasJar with T-Mobile USA? |

I don't know either way, but I do know that T-Mobile USA mainly uses 1900, and Cingular uses 850 and I believe 1900 in some areas. |

No Bluetooth Stearo headphones with Bluetooth V1.1, quite disappointing.
Expansys has the Spec with Bluetooth V1.2 - so which is it ?

UGLY name!
Reminds me of that Star Wars character... JARJAR!
Not a cool name for a cool device. Imagine telling your friend about your new gadget.
You: Hey, look at my new toy.
Friend: Wow! Cool! Great features. I want one. What do they call it?
You: imate JASJAR
Friend: What? JARJAR? 
IMHO: Jam sounds cool, but this one... |
