I know for a fact that the Tour is capable of this right now. I can not confirm it as fact until we see a TP2, but if it runs the same dual band/dual network capability as the Tour, then it should do the same!

Also, the only 4G device out right now is the U300 USB Aircard, and that is only in select cities. Baltimore was the first 4G testing ground.
Will have to wait and see how it shapes up as I rem. reading the TP2 went through the FCC on CDMA only. Meaning it will have the GSM features, but they won't be usable in the US as the FCC hasn't tested and approved that for US use. Not sure how the phone will detect that it is in the US though so we'll have to see how this all shapes out.
