I don't think so. USA/Canada use different frequency bands for GSM than what most of the rest of the planet uses.
You're thinking of T-Mobile in the US which in general is lacking and needs to be 5-band.
So the phone, if purchased outside of the EU, will need to be a quad-band phone to cover everywhere.
Maybe I shouldn't have said "any," but every GSM phone I've owned has been quad band, including my iPhone.
Ok, at least Tri-band, able to be used in NA and Europe.
The 7-11 phones are not quad-band.
I used older T68i and a Samsung for a while on Speakout, I just figured all their cheap Nokias were capable too. I just checked the Nokia I got with my Speakout SIM and while the main model is quad band, the version they give you is a "-2" model which does only support two bands.
But Speakout phones are locked anyway, so I wasn't suggesting you use one of them - just showing a price comparison.
