Hardly. An operator like T-mobile has very very little bandwidth in most places,barely enough for 2G, the "normal" 3G frequencies in the US were already allocated to the Government (2100 and 1700) and at the moment it seems like new phones for 3G in the US will have to be specially developed for newer non-standard 3G implementations.
