what's that got to to with 3G?

To the original poster: it's not clear if your friend is intending to use their US connection in Europe (REALLY expensive rates) or buy a selection of European SIMs to work with their device. As ScottC says the device is probably locked to the US provider, so I agree it probably won't work.
