It's also coming to Germany within a week or two. I don't think it's ever coming to the United States, the only way I would buy this is if it supports UMTS 1700mhz, and 2100mhz (T-Mobile's 3G bands in the US). It was adverstised to support these bands, but I don't know how true that is.

If that picture is true, so will it work on T-Mobile USA (3g) and AT&T (3g) because i see both 3g frequency for both carriers on that image?

GSM is not 3G...only UMTS is.

I'm interested in that this means:

"- Optimus UI 2.0, Gesture UI 2.0"

And whether we already have version 2.0 in the 2x? What is version 1.0?
[Nexus One], [Optimus 2x > /dev/null], [Galaxy Nexus], [Transformer Prime]

Is this phone the same as the 2x? If not, why is it posted here & not in its own dedicated section (or ask an Admin to create one)? I know that phones will change names & that's partly why I'm asking.

Why is there no dedicated optimus black
forum? I believe it is a great device which
deserves much more attention. Even though it
doesn't carry along the same power than the
2x, it has probably what could be the best
screen on market with respect to luminosity
and power drain. For the rest, the device has
pretty much the same hardware configuration
as the nexus s, fitted in a slimmer body and
adding fm radio support. If it can be rooted
easily, that will be my device of choice. Nexus
s is great, but feels a bit plastic and is a bit
thick in my opinion.
