Yep, the korean language one does have english. Totally english language compatible, not just partially. But they cost around 850usd with current exchange rate. Koreans telcos are regulated heavily (and it doesnt hurt their bottom lines) from offering substantial subsidies. But as Korean conglomorates and the government are often deeply and confusingly intertwined, maybe its the telcos regulating the government to heavily limit subsidies... just throwing it out there. If you are interested, Maybe find out if the phones frequencies are compatible, and I would be happy to get one and send it to you at cost. Since we have bought 4, I am pretty confident I can get a discount, and the store is in a department store about 50 metres away from my apartment. But I think you would be able to get an unlocked one for much cheaper if you wait until its released in Europe. Then again, I had a phone in London that I bought unlocked for a business trip and it wasnt much cheaper. (It might have had more to do with the KRW getting pounded by the sterling.)
As far as my motoroi craze, I think I have documented it in pretty great detail in another thread -
Droid vs Motoroi
