Using a HTC Sensation (UK) in New York

[SteveDisco]

Hi - I have asked this question in the HTC Sensation forum but have had no responses so opening up to a wider audience.

I would like to know if it is possible to access 3G on my UK HTC Sensation when I go to New York next month on a US SIM card?

My limited understanding is that the frequencies used for US phones are different to those in the UK but am unclear if the Sensation will still be able to access.

If it is not possible could I just use a US SIM for voice calls and rely on WiFi access?

Thanks

I'm far to lazy to type that out twice

As well as pressing the "thanks" button will also take the trouble to type it out too!!

Thank you - I have had conflicting information about this!

All the info I see on the sensation says that its only has the typical 900/2100 3g bands. Even double checked on UK carriers site. Its quad band edge but not 3g. So it be best to rely on wifi for data
