    You should be able to, although you will only have access to GSM 1800 networks
    which may have slightly worse coverage then the GSM 900 networks. You also have
    to make sure that your home proivder has a roaming agreement with the GSM 1800
    providers there, or your phone won't work without a prepaid SIM, which once
    again would need to be from a GSM 1800 provider.

    The 1800 networks[1] in the UK are Orange and T-Mobile. Coverage for Orange
    is quoted as 99% of the population - see
    http://coverage.orange.co.uk/uk/UKCoverageSearch.htm



    [1] O2 and Vodafone have _some_ 1800MHz microcells to provide additional
    capacity where their 900MHz capacity is stretched. I wouldn't want to bet on
    there being too many of them.
