Ahh gotcha awesome. yeah I got it reversed. Bellus doesnt have a 2G network but their 3G network is alot bigger than Rogers I read. So essentially its the same with all carriers. Awesome

Might be the UK T-Mobile | wouldn't the internals of the phone be the same? Maybe its their network, and not the phone.

I was checking the t-mobile site, looks like their 9700 runs on:
850 MHz;900 MHz;1800 MHz;1900 MHz;UMTS: Band IV (1700/2100)
so the GSM bands will work for rogers/fido, but their 3G bands won't.

Damn, didn't realize that the 3G bands didn't match. There goes my plan to pick one up from T-Mobile.
I'll have to wait till AT&T releases it, later this month.

Just find one from Bell.
The unlock costs more since it's double locked, but it's worth the unbranded piece haha
