I have an E1000 with 3, but can I use it when I go to Cyprus?

Hi Tina,
Yes, it should be perfectly OK to use the E1000 in Cyprus. In the UK the frequency bands used are 3G, GSM 900 and GSM 1800. As you will see from this entry on the GSM World website, the same bands are used in Cyprus:

The 3 network have a roaming agreement with the Cypriot company CYTAGSM, and so there should be no problem using your phone with them, but check the charges:

You do not say if you have used the E1000 abroad before, so you may need to have your phone enabled for international roaming. Check this out in good time before you travel:

I hope that answers your question.
