Hello!

I am the Luca, the user who submitted the above edit. As I usually resort to this Wiki for information about the Countries I happen to visit, my goal was to highlight a problem for (european, but not only) tourists that may be coming to New York City (and other areas of the USA) and planning to use their own smartphones. Hardly any european mobile can make use of 3G on AWS band and, in particular, the smartphone I have been using is a Moto G5 that is equipped with a quite advanced radio-section, capable of dealing with most frequencies and standards (2G/3G/4G-LTE). Nevertheless in New York City I was left outside in the rain... I thought that, instead of nitpicking about frequencies and standards, it would have been better to say it in one simple sentence: at the moment with the vast majority of non-USA smartphones in New York City you won't have access to mobile internet. This simple statement would probably save the day of thousands people reading this precious Wiki... and I thought it would have been better to integrate it in the main text instead of posting it in the forum (where nobody is going to read it... :-)  )

thank you for your effort in keeping all of these information updated! :-)

Luca
