    I really hate the way the European models don't support LTE, hope Vodafone opt for the LTE version whenever they decide to release.

    HTC IE:
    GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
    HSPA/WCDMA: 850/900/1900/2100 MHz

    HTC US:
    GSM/GPRS/EDGE: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz
    HSPA/WCDMA: 850/1900/2100 MHz
    LTE:700/850/AWS/1900 MHz

    Thanks have you dealt with this amazon before and do you know how to get it in English

    Yes they are fine. Use google translate or similar in your browser, or use amazon.co.uk as a guide

    It doesn't say that exactly, but should be as it doesn't say a network.

    Has this for both:
    Mobile / Service Provider: Not specified

    Ye I see that now. Strange considering they do for other phones. You can get it shipped to NI using parcel motel though for €3.41 P&P.

    Parcel motel is €3.50 or free for your first two deliveries

    That is peculiar. I got my lumia 800 from them. Are you sure it is from amazon themselves, and not a seller using amazon asks they are often stricter with shipping?

    I don't but you'd also want to be careful buying an LTE handset from the US as I think most of the bands differ from what the Irish operators will be using.

    edit:
    Just checked, Irish operator bands are:
    800mhz*
    900mhz
    1800mhz

    * Looks like 3 didn't purchase the 800Mhz band

    The links given does not give an option to buy HTC 8S red color.

    I guess the red color is not available in Europe
