    Given that there aren't many 850mhz 3G networks, I'm assuming that
    Telstra's NextG service roams onto GSM networks overseas.

    If you should happen to only be within range of Telstra GSM in
    Australia, will it roam onto their GSM network here?

    Can it do seamless in-call transfer?

    With the Next G UMTS 850 being almost everywhere this really isn't an issue.
    Hand offs to 2G will be very rare.

    Do a search of where you are worried about here.

    Not sure about UMTS850, but Optus UMTS2100-->GSM900 happens a lot on my
    handset - always seamless (if for a little handover noise) and never
    dropped out.
