Nope, T-Mobile 3G and AT&T 3G are not compatible due to different frequencies.

Apple - "3G iPhone supports UMTS/HSDPA (850, 1900, 2100 MHz)."

T-Mobile - "Our 3G network supports both the 1700MHz and 2100MHz frequencies."

So, wont it work on 2100MHz?

rooting for dungbeetles ! Althought everyone says it doesn't , let's hope he's leading into something

I guess I might have to just go get the damn thing to see for sure. I live in the Seattle area and everything I read says T-Mobile will have 3G in my area around mid October. But its already here!! I'm dying to find out if it will work for sure.

I just got off the phone with T-Mobile and they said there shouldn't be any problem with the 3G iPhone on their 3G network. I didn't think they would actually say that. They only said it had to be unlocked first.

Posiedon, I see you have 3G network available. Just curious if you have actually tried it?

Thats probably because most places do not have T-Mobile 3G.

not true

if you searched you would know that both signals are used, one for 3G uploading and one for downloading. Its worthless with only one of the bands.
