Default Unlocked iPhone 3G on T-Mobile...

Ok... So my question is 1a)will my wife's unlocked iPhone 3G work on T-Mobile, and 1b) will she be able to take advantage of the T-Mobile HotSpot@Home features with the unlocked iPhone on WiFi?

Thanks in advance guys... I'm really out of my realm when it comes to her phone... I'm Blackberry thru and thru, she got the iPhone to keep her happy...

yes it will work on t-mobile, but don't know about the hotspot@home. my buddy's iphone 3g is unlocked and running tmobile, his wifi works fine on my home network. just one thing, make sure you switch the 3g to 2g. otherwise it will not detect the tmobile sim card.

AT&T's 3G is a different frequency, so it will run on EDGE with T-Mobile. You can use wifi for internet browsing, but not for UMA calling.
