Posted from my CrackBerry at wapforums.crackberry.com | Correct. 9700 has UMA hardware, but the 9000 does not. On T-Mobile, UMA is free, as in it will only count against your normal call minutes and texts, but there won't be other charges
When in UMA, data works as normal.
Just to clarify about the web2go thing, BB features won't work on that. To get things like push email/BBM, you need a Blackberry-specific data plan so that the device can communicate with RIM servers.
The BB plan would work fine with the 9000 but you wouldn't be able to use UMA, nor 3G. (Because ATT's 3G bands in the 9000 do not match T-Mobile's)
