MiniUSB is a nice addition! Who needs PopPort anyway?? MyOwn key is really nice also...

The E61 should work fine in the US - it's supposed to be 850/900/1800 and 1900 MHz GSM.

Hi All! I was wondering if the E62 would work in Asia since I'm under the impression that the unit is specifically tailored or "locked" with Cingular USA. If I somehow get the subsidy lock from Cingular, would the phone work in the Philippines? The carriers here do use the GSM900/GSM1800 band. Thank you!
