Cingular GSM 900/1800/1900 Question

Ok,
So I'm hoping someone can help me out here. I've about killed the old phone (GSM Samsung) that I got with my account activation 1 year ago. I want to buy a phone unlocked but does anyone know how to figure out which GSM an area is on?
Do all 3 bands work in all areas or is there something I'm not getting. I've gone to the store, not paying that much for phones that don't work for me, and I've tried to talk to two CSReps but they um...seem befuddled why I would ask.
Anyway, any suggestions to figure out what the hell I need to do? Anyone have a handy map available to look this up for me???

Thanks for the assist 😉

You need at least 850/1900.

900/1800 are frequencies used outside the USA.
