Default ATT Band Frequency

Quick question:

I'm trying to buy an unlocked Bold 9900, and it says
"Supports 900 / 2100mhz 3G bands Quad band GSM "

Will I be able to use AT&T 3G with this device?

Thanks.

I have no clue, and the customer service doesn't know either.

You are welcome. A Telus, Rogers, Bell and Virgin 9900 will work on 3G on AT&T.

yea 900/2100 mhz are the 3G frequencies used in europe and other parts of the world. in order to use 3G or H+ on at&t, you will need a phone with 850/1900 mhz.

the phone in question will work only on EDGE (2G)
