cheers....
8830 is not 3G - it's called world edition because it is multi-band including GSM and CDMA.

Blackberry has 3 3G devices including 8707g, 8707v and 8707h. 8707g can be found with various carriers in Europe and Asia, 8707v is mainly with Vodaphone UK (and others), while the 8707h is strictly for Japan with NTT Docomo. These 3 devices are essentially the same, just difference cases.

I'm currently using an unlocked 8707g (originally from O2) with a T-Mobile SIM card, reason being that I'm currently on a project in Korea/Japan. I get great 3G service here on the 8707g!

I'm hoping to see the O/S 4.2 upgrade for the 8707's soon!
