Why do you require a separate handset for USA?

In addition to 1900MHz, the cellular networks in the US work on an additional GSM frequency -850 MHz. Matrix provides US SIM cards with free phones which can log on to both GSM 850 MHz and 1900 MHz frequencies; thereby providing far more superior coverage compared to your regular Tri-band phone.
