May have an oppertunity to get a rediculously nice IP dect phone from the US, its dect 6.0 which I know wont work with the dect we have here, but I am wondering if it will work at all?

I have a 900MHz phone which is basically useless here, and I am wondering if the 1900MHz dect phones will have the same problem or not.

Why not just buy a regular DECT phone here in NZ? The only difference is a few MHz difference in channels.

If you know of a sip capable one for under a hundred bucks on the gigaset that a friend has been offered is too good to pass up.

Doing a local Google shows DECT 6.0 is available here so most likely should be fine. Just dig a bit deeper and confirm that it is a valid frequency for NZ, because if you cause interference using a frequency not allowed here then you can get fined.
