One more thing - will I lose any functionality going from UK to Global?
i did use the backup proggie on the n900 to keep all my settings, so id suggest doing the same, and save it to a memory card.... just in case

What do you do about backup-ing settings, apps, contacts etc? I'm guessing it will remove them all..?

Have you actually managed to have a Skype conversation over T-Mobile 3g? Mine works fine over wifi but on 3g it is basically unaudible, just constantly flickering on and off. Been meaning to make a thread about it asking other's experience but haven't got round to it.
Here in Australia I get a better ping on Skype over 3G than regular mobile call when dialing very long distance (Oz to UK/Europe, or Canada/US)
Edit: Please keep the thread roughly on topic. If you need help, create your own thread.
