Next high end phones for North America?

Since I recently moved to Canada I'm very interested in having fancy phones here too, there's just not a whole lot available

In all the rumors I hardly ever see any bands mentioned, is there anything like a P990 "a" in sight?

Any high end clamshell that's quad-band/3G? Z520 is a good phone, but not exactly what I'm used to spec wise...

Cingular & Rogers are building 3G networks over here, but there's no SE that supports 850/1900 & 3G...

Hope somebody's got some good news for me

SE has been releasing more handset for North America lately, including a variant of the K800 (the K790a). It is entirely possible that new SE handsets may also be made available for North America.

The one thing I would say is that one isn't likely to see many, if any, 3G handsets for North America in the immediate future.

Hey Scotsboy, ur still around?

Yea, SE's shown some more fones for N.A. never liked candybars too much though, so 790 is not fully an option, W/Z 710 is coming to the shops here now, but why doesn't the Z at least have an outside color display, I understand it with the W, but for the Z they could have put 1 in, would be a really different model of some sort then, not only different branding...

I'll still wait a little bit for a non-touchscreen smartphone, maybe I'm lucky, there is stuff in the pipeline now, if it wasn't for these different bands...
