At TimeshareValues.com we recently communicated with a buyer based in the Midwest. We are in the San Francisco Bay area. We talked a lot at 9pm our time while he was still in his office.

This should be your first choice when seeking a phone. However, since some of the best phone can still be expensive and hard to find, many gravitate toward the second best choice, the tri band phone. When doing this be mindful which three bands your phone has, as some bands are more useful than others.The United States originally only used 1900 MHz for its GSM service, but more recently, there has been a growing amount of GSM service on the 850 MHz band.
