FW link

Saw this while browsing on FW...might be of use to some?

I ordered one just to try it out - may be handy when I move our family plans to T-mobile at the end of the year.

You realize that the iPhone 3G doesn't support T-Mobile's 3G band, right?

As for this device, I have never heard of it. Since there is no software unlock, I'm guessing it's a dual-SIM device.

So there is no way to unlock an iphone and use it on another network? i dont want to pay att's ridiculous fees. plus they willingly wiretap . :/

It's possible to use an iPhone 3G on any other GSM network with a SIM card mod. The only other national GSM carrier in the U.S. is T-Mobile. There are some regionals though. But you DEFINITELY can't use it on Sprint or Verizon, EVER.

Is TMobile cheaper than ATT? If not I guess it makes sense to just get the phone through ATT

The service is generally cheaper, but you can't buy the iPhone through TMO.

It's cheaper, but not significantly cheaper. A basic plan on AT&T would cost you $70 for data + 450 minutes, T-Mo would run you $50 for data + 300 minutes.

There are ways to get data cheaper on both carriers, but these are the standard 'official' pricing. T-Mo has better text plans. $5 for 400, $10 for 1000, $15 for unlimited vs 200 for $5, 1500 for $15 and unlimited for $20 on AT&T.

I'd love to have the iPhone on my wifes SERO plan. $30/mo for unlimited data, text and 500 minutes. $27 after taxes with her discount. Even my old plan was $55 for 450 minutes, unlimited data and text.
