[Dual00Gauges]

I have had the 7250 and 3650, now time to upgrade. So, Will the Nokia 7650 work in the states? I have heard a they will and then I have heard they wont. Also, will the 8910i work in the states? Any sites other then Ebay? Thanks, Alec

1st of the 7650 is a downgrade compared to the 3650.
2nd it only works on 900Mhz/1800Mhz bands so not in the USA which uses 850Mhz/1900Mhz

and for the 8910i

straight from the nokia site

Dual Band Operation
EGSM 900, GSM 1800, and GSM 900/1800 dual-band networks in Europe, Africa, and Asia. Automatic switching between bands.

So not for USA market again.

So there is absolutely no way to get it to work? Thanks for your help too.

No, you'll need either a triband phone, such as your 3650 that will only work on 1900MHz bands, or a US only phone. If you have had a 3650 and that works ok, you should be alright with any other triband phone. I'm not sure if there was a US version of the 7650, otherwise you could use that. An upgrade which would work would be the 6600 or there is a US only phone which is like the 6600 with more memory etc, but i can't remember the name of it. Either way, I'd probably stick with the 3650, as 6600 has problems with some software, but its your call.

I had the Nokia 3620 in mind. I compared all the 36xx models and this one has the just a few more features. Anything wrong with them I should know?

Its a US only phone, so I haven't got a clue.
