StickyB,
I have one of the new Motorola Timeport TI250's and it's lovely for GSM use. GSM/PCN/PCS 900/1800/1900 for true triple band operation. I used my previous L7089 Timeport on a trip to the US 2 years back, just after the phone was launched. Worked a treat roaming with One2One in the outbacks of Oklahoma and Alabama, as well as at airports en-route at Detroit and Memphis.
Mine also has the advantage of not being SP locked, so I can throw in any SIM from any provider and it works...! Buy a pay-as-you go on a US network while you're there, throw the SIM in and don't pay the astronomical roaming rates...!!! Okay, so long as you don't need same number...
