Single band WCDMA or dual?

I was looking at Nokia's nseries site, and they list 1900 and 2100 bands for WCDMA (UMTS) for the n80, but only 2100 for the n80 internet edition...everything I've read says they're the same hardware, so which is it?

The reason I ask is, I use Cingular here in the US and their UMTS/HSDPA service is only on 850/1900, and unfortunately most phones seem to only support 3g on the 2100 band (which, FYI, TMobile in the US will be rolling out in the next few months)

Cingular doesn't charge "extra" for 3g per-say, but if you don't have unlimited data (I do, it's $35/mo I think?) you'll be running up quite a bill...

I'm half-tempted to switch to TMobile since they'll be using the more standard 2100 band for their 3g service, but everyone in my family is on cingular so that means free calls to just about everyone...
