Because it doesn't make a business scence for other manufacturers to do that, yet. HTC is trying to establish a dominant role in a smartphone market, so they would do anything to stay ahead of competition. But others will wait for further development in the US wireless market and once there's enough demand, they will jump in. Why do many manufacturers make tri-band and not quadband phones? Because 850 mhz is used primarely in USA, along with 1900mhz, which by the way covers most of the markets. So, save a penny, make a buck. :wink:
