To both your points (not taking sides).

The original question was vague and made no direct attempt to ask if 3G data is supported in Europe on a Canadian Milestone.
The answer is no 3G support in Europe with a Canadian Milestone, but voice will work because it's a quad band phone and you must have international roaming with your SIM card or use a pre-paid European SIM card.

To the replies: The information available on forums is hard to dig through and find the facts. There are so many people posting "what they speculate" and not what they know to be a fact. I understand the original poster's reasons for asking the question. Not everyone understands the differences in frequencies when it comes to 3G data usage.

Some facts:
I have a German Milestone that worked in Germany with a Blau.de pre-paid SIM card on the 3G data network. I brought it to the USA and I can only use EDGE data speeds but voice is fine too with my AT&T SIM card.
