Anyone know who is selling one or both of these models in North America?
I still think that we (p800/900 users) are unique

At&T has been carrying the P800 for a short few months now. There are no carriers for the P900 yet.

Ask not what you can do for you mobile phone, but ask what your mobile phone can do for you when you’re piss bored.

AT&T wireless pulled the P800 because as of Jan 1 2004, they require all of their GSM phones to include GSM 850 (exceptions for the Ngage and the MpX200)

And even when AT&T did sell the P800, they only marketed it to business and corporate customers only by phone and web orders

Despite demographic they targeted the phone to they still had it available for anyone to purchase online. Moreover, I don't think you'd find a Pxxx like phone in a kiosk simply because of cost. The average US consumer cares very little about features when they're led to believe that some of the below average crap is a global standard. Thereby making it very difficult to convince them to pay prices that appear to be above average market cost for a top of the line mobile phone.
