900/1800 will not operate at all in North America, you will need at the
very least a tri-band phone with 1900 MHz which will work in most major
cities and along major roads, but GSM850 is also coming into use so a quad
band phone is ideal, although I'm not sure if Nokia produce one as yet.
My 6310i worked fine for me in most of California last September, although
it did drop out along parts of Hwy.1 around Big Sur, but not a lot works
there anyway..!
