Any tri-band phone will work great on T-mobile for voice. Data is more of a crapshoot. Another phone that's interesting is the Panasonic x800. Symbian 60 but NOT a Nokia.
Thanks Kanebear for the tip, I'll look into it. Panasonic upgraded the GU-87 to the x70 which was really expensive and I couldn't find a local sellar. I don't like buying things I can't look at and hold in my hand. I'll look for the others you mention when I get there, I take it Nokia's are a bad choice?
