Hi,

I have two questions about MPX200:

• Can I use it as GSM/GPRS modem for my laptop? (I am doing it with my SPV E100)
  
• There is rumor that says that if you unlocking the US version of the phone (GSM 1800/1900) it unlocks youn the "hidden" European frequency - GSM 900 MHZ, is it true? Does someone tried it?

Thanks.

Yes, you can use it as a modem for your laptop. Just search for "mpx200 modem" on google or something and yes, you can unlock the 900Mhz band on all MPx200 phones. I have used my mpx200 as a modem before and i have the 900Mhz band unlocked.

Unlocking the 900Mhz band is not proven, a few of the early AT&T mpx200 units were tri-band but supposidly the later versions were only dual-band which was a hardware design and not software.
