A good phone for use with WIND in Italy

Hello all,

I am planning to buy an cell phone for use with a Wind SIM card in Italy. I would also like to use it along with the Wind Mega 100 hour prepaid data plan.

Any recommendations on a good phone? Main thing for me is that the phone support internet surfing with the maximum coverage throughout Italy. I am confused about the HSDPA vs. EDGE vs. GPRS vs. UMTS support of the phones...

Someone told me my phone must support UMTS in order to use internet/data on the phone. Is this correct?

what UMTS frequency must it support? 850, 1900, 0r 2100?

Thank you all,
