Otherwise you might have to trek up to the Nokia store in Chicago (<a href="http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/04/07/nokia-unloads-n95-on-us-flagships/" rel="nofollow">LINK</a>) Which by the way was right near our hotel and friggen awesome!

TMobile did a 1 year plan (because we already had the phones), with full data, blah blah. Yes that phone is espensive, oh but it's so bad ass. From the data sheet it supports the following networks/frequencies: WCDMA2100 (HSDPA), EGSM900, GSM850/1800/1900 MHz (EGPRS) Up to 10 hours playback

I asked about Nokia devices at all the stores and they looked at me with the blank faces normally reserved for the "So what clock speed does it run at?" question. What networks can it run on?
