The argument I've always heard is that 800 MHz penetrates buildings 
better.  While that may be true, I wonder how much of it will be 
canceled out by the inefficiency of handset-sized antennas at those 
frequencies.  People don't see to want to have a whip antenna sticking 
out of their phone anymore.
