    So if I use my 8320 to call over wifi while travelling in asia will I be charged on my tmo bill?
    I would assume that it doesn't cost tmo money for the call but if they see a foriegn number they will charge me (ie if I call my mom here in oregon it will be free, but if I call my girls brother in vietnam it will cost money)
    Does anyone have experience with this?

    That is one huge advantage of Hotspot@Home service.

    When you have a Wifi/UMA connection, you are making a local call. Unlimited voice and data over Wifi. I does not matter where in the World you call from.

    Good call on replacing the SIM for the Curry delivery guy.

    It doesn't matter that I don't use h@h service? I don't see why that should matter. I still may send tmo an email. I don't want to be suprised later

    If you are not subscribed to H@H, UMA is not available. If you have UMA, you have free calling in or too your home country. If you call somebody in London, there will be international charges, but the actual usage is still free.

    If you do not subscribe, T-Mobile will bill it against your existing plan.

    If you pass on the subscription to H@H, you will get exactly the same coverage any other T-Mobile customer gets. Outside of the US, it means roaming charges and huge data bills.

    With H@H, your voice and data are unlimited when connected to Wifi.

    Hi, I'm new here. Had my curve for about a month and love it and these forums.

    Stoner is right.

    for example say you are calling from Phoenix to London.

    With H@H The call itself is free but you will pay international long distance charges.

    Without H@H you will pay minutes, long distance, and international charges which add up to big a$$ bucks.
