Tri or Quad band GSM?

Judging by the model number, this is a GSM phone. So is it tri or quad band?
...
Tri-band, and unfortunately no GSM 850... ☹️

I guess for all those who were hoping that it would be for Cingular, it won't be. I believe Cingular requires GSM 850. It could possibly be for T-Mobile.

Actually tmobile uses a lot of their roaming agreements using the 850 spectrum i believe! So it could still be for tmobile, you'll just be out of luck and unable to take advantage of all their roaming partners

It says it's a triband GSM phone supporting EDGE data, suggesting that Cingular is the likely carrier. However, Cingular already has a candybar style Windows Mobile smartphone, i.e., hp iPaq6515, and they'll probably get the WiFi-enabled iPaq 6900 during the summer, running Windows Mobile 5.0. Seems to me like these two phones have very very similar spec to be in the same lineup. Maybe Cingular will drop one favor of the other? Or carry both, with the hp more expensive and targeted at enterprise users on exchange servers?
Or maybe it'll come to, god forbid, T-Mobile, as you guys are suggesting? What a waste of promising phone that would be.
