The SE t68i looks promising, if anyone can confirm that it does in fact work in both Japan and Korea with a Cingular SIM.

Any suggested model numbers of phones that work in Japan and Korea (I don't care if they use CDMA there or UMTS or what, as long as they work), as well as GSM networks in USA and EU?

So far I have:

HTC TyTN/Cingular 8525
Sony Ericsson t68i
T68i most certainly will not work.

The poster that said that GSM850 or 1900 will work is wrong. You'll need something like a Nokia N80 that supports WCDMA2100. There is NO GSM in Korea or Japan.
