...the only models that can do 850MHz UMTS are the ones intended for Australia

I was helping a friend set up her new computer.
She opened up Internet Explorer and noticed the default search engine was Bing.
She tried to change the default search engine to Google.

In Australia, where we have $1 and $2 coins, the coins add considerably to the thickness and weight of my wallet. And there are many vending machines that only accept coins, so you have to carry $5-$10 in change to be safe. With a $1 bill, vending machines would only need to accept notes, and should accept higher denominations too.
