In most places such as US and China one could put the GSM1x in the same frequencey as the GSM in the manner engineer explained for CDMA and analog in the US. However, I think you may be right that in Europe one would be prohibited from putting GSM1x in the same band as GSM because this band is reserved for the GSM technology across Europe. It is technically possible but not politically possible under current regulatory regime. This could change if service providers really wanted it to change and petitioned regulatory bodies to do so but it would take time. They might be able to put the GSM1x in the 3G band at 2.1ghz though and have the roaming occur on the 900 mhz band on GSM. To do this though the 1x part would have to be considered "3G" by ETSI - actually now that GSM1x is officially positioned with the release that has 384 kbps it might be possible.
