Sony Ericsson K850i approved by the FCC

On and on I keep wondering why Sony Ericsson keeps pushing its devices through the FCC, when most of them don’t reach the U.S. market at all. Lately, we’ve spotted their best Cyber-shot device to date, K850i, passing the FCC hurdle. The mentioned phone comes with a built-in 5 MP camera with auto-focus and Xenon flash light, and has just recently started appearing in the markets across Europe. Literally all popular bands (except 1700) are supported, meaning you WILL won’t be able to experience all the glory of the HSDPA in the U.S. And in case you want to hurry up, I guess you could already buy it from any of the U.S. mobile phone importers…

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.

    This could be used in America because it has GSM 850 GSM 900 GSM 1800 GSM 1900 HSDPA UMTS 850 UMTS 1900 UMTS 2100.As you can see it can be used in AT&T’s 3G network.

    quad GSM and tri UMTS is right – look at the german SE site

    K850i is the first 3G world phone. It supports all HSDPA bands except for 1700. Thus, it’ll work in the USA.
