Its not a tri-band phone, so it wont work on US GSM networks if you bought it in Europe.

I don;t think there is, no. You might try asking on HowardForums, as they will know for sure, but I think you'll have to ebay the phone and buy another I'm afraid.

Nothing at all, unfortunately. Its a hardware thing, not software, so cant be switched. All you can really do is sell it and buy the US model instead, or move to europe.
