Is the P910a the last SE smartphone that had 850? I haven't seen any since the p910, besides the X1 of course but that isn't out yet and I am sure it will be pricey.

My criteria was:

I need a smartphone.
I wanted it to be a Sony Ericsson.
It has to have 850Mhz because of the area I live in and my service provider (AT&T).
Has to be cheap.

Is the P910a still a viable solution or should I look elsewhere? I know the P910 is getting older but I know it will fit my needs. I have seen a bunch on ebay going pretty cheap. What do you think?

Damn, I really wish more SE phones had 850, the X1 is so sexy, is there any word on pricing? I assume it will be pretty expensive.

@diablophone: The X1 will be expensive. In the X1 product page on the SE website, it mentions 'premium' three times in two paragraphs. Now we all know what premium means to big companies like SE:

Something they can sell at a huge price because its either full of features or made of gold.

AT&T uses 850, I've had phones in the past without 850 and I lose service all over the place especially in the more rural areas here in CT and in Mass.
