Good point Ravman, and thanks for doing your homework on the 3G band break-down. I also believe that Apple will make sure that the new iPhone will work on Euro 3G as well as US AT&T bands. I would imagine that Apple's contract with AT&T is the reason why we won't see T-Mobile's band stuffed in there as well.
As for a new bootloader, I belive that is innevitable as well. As long as that bootloader is secure, the value of the 1st gen iPhone will remail high on the secondary market.
