Yes, I think that's always been so. Europe is far more compact than the
U.S., and with much more typical population density.

To tell another anti-AT&T tale: The first time we went to continental
Europe, we (or rather, my wife) had a flip phone through AT&T. I called
AT&T support to ask whether the phone would function in Europe. The tech
support guy I got told me it absolutely would, no problem at all.

Of course when we landed, we found the phone was useful only as a
paperweight. IIRC, the phone wasn't even capable of dealing with the
frequencies that Europe used. And when I took it into a cell phone store
of some kind, asking if something could be done to make it work, the
tech guy there said "We've never even seen a phone like this one!"

Ah well. We got by for six weeks anyway, mostly by using internet cafes.

This has been largely changed since everyone's phones are now made in China.
