It already exists on Orange in the UK apparantly.
That's interesting - although as none of us have ever heard of it, and nobody is seen pushing it in the UK, I wonder whether Orange merely dabbled with it and whether they are actively using it. Also, what kind of coverage it has ...

I don't know what the market is like in the US, for all I know they have focused on EDGE (apparently also known as 2.75G) rather than on full-blown 3G. I would still bet that this launches as a 3G handset when it comes to the UK - I would go so far as to say it will seriously dent their sales potential if they don't, unless they can be advertised as being like 3G except cheaper to run.
