Great phone. Saw it here today for a silly price :
mobilebee.com/nokia-n81-8gb.html
Gotta have one!
This phone works on UMTS / GSM 850/900/1800/1900 MHz. You need to check with your service provider on which bands it operates. I know for sure that it will work with AT&T, Cingular, and T-Mobile.

The website i go to usualy
http://www.gsmarena.com/nokia_n81_8gb-2085.php
it says it works on UMTS 1200 and GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
just like u said so this phone is considered to work on all networks?
i remember about 5 years ago i tried working my Nokia 5210 in Clearwater, NJ and the simcard wouldnt even fit into the phone :S it was AT&T
so was it that 5 years ago phones were not meant for all bands? GSM and UMTS ? and the united states it most likely UMTS right?
thanks alot i apreciate it :)

heyy there, after i looked around i found this realy nice site :D
you pick the phone you want and after clicking it you will find a box on the right that says:
will this phone work with your carrier?
u will find many different carriers in that box so u select it and it will tell u if it is compatible or not :D
i found out that the N81 will work fine with Tmobile USA and AT&T
but NOT sprint or verizon
well u cant have everything
thank u again :) hope this site interests u all :)
here u will find the N95 and the box on the right

Great site, thanks. I think i'm gonna order it from mobilebee.com though. The lowest price i saw. Plus free shipping. I'm gonna use T-Mobile with it. Do you by the chance know if all the features will work with it?
