Question Cell phones

(I guess the computer/internet issues forum is the most appropriate for this "mind-blowing" question)

I know that cell phones (or mobile phones, if you prefer) do not work on the other side of the north atlantic. Europe uses the GSM standart and the states ... some other format. I have seen the next generation cell phones for sale in the US of A and on some it stated "complies with GSM ..." Does that mean that new cellular will work in the US and Europe? I noticed the GSM capability on T-Mobile phones (assuming that is German Telecom).
