Now the kicker - if you try to user internationally, you will be able to connect using wifi but TMO will check the IP address and if it is not a US IP, you will be charged for roaming and no free UMA calls
Update and corrections.

Spoke with TMO CS again to check on arrival of my BB and CS told me what I quoted above referred to the new H@H using regular phone and not UMA enabled mobile phone. She said the other CS misspoke and in theory with wifi signal it should work properly anywhere
