I am using the E61 in the US. It works great. It supports GSM carriers.

Thanks for the review. I have been using the E61 for a couple of weeks now. I am quite happy with it however the lack of scroll wheel is HUGE. perhaps you don't realise it since you haven't had the experience of using a blackberry. You have to move your thumb from the wheel to the menu buttons to navigate and the device tends to slip out of your hands so I find myself using it with 2 hands (maybe I have small hands) with the scroll wheel and back button on the Q and Blackberry you can rapidly scroll down an entire web page or navigate forward and backwards within millimetres of your current thumb position. For example, if you install Profimail on the E61 (LOVES IT) and click on an HTML link from within an email, it pops up the web page in their own browser and you can use the # 3 and 6 keys to scroll the page. While that seems antiquated method compared to the fancy joystick, I can still scroll to the bottom of the page leaps faster then when using the joystick because the joystick actually moves you to the next hyperlink as you scroll rather then being a true scrolling control.I also tried the Q and found it to be quite nice however I'm not impressed with MSFT approach to mobile navigation in general and the camera which is lacking in the E61 was extremely slow and looked like up-resed VGA and that just doesn't cut it for me these days, that plus I tend to have my pocket dig with me at all times. As a user of the E61 I would recommend Profimail and Smart Roaming (auto switch between access point types without loosing connection)

Nice write-up! I agree with most of it. I have to say that I really like the keyboard. I have used many different smartphone but this one is far and away the best. Recently I have been using the MP3 functionality a lot:
