Is it possible to get a tablet plan nano SIM and use it in an iPhone? In other words, use it for free data in other countries without text/voice service? An online chat with T-Mobile says yes. The only recent discussion I saw about this was several years ago. For example, http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/21704501-post179.html

So I think I can say from this experience that a tablet SIM doesn't work on a phone.

The SIM comes in three sizes (all in the same package), including nano, FYI.
T-Mobile definitely offers data-only plans for iPhones (and all smartphones, really). See this link for info...
