Putting another carrier SIM card in does not sound like it would work, but maybe. I will admit I carried an old T-Mobile phone so I could use, if need be, another carrier SIM but it was never needed. The price came out to be the same and your phone number was different, so inbound calls were pointless. I guess it has never been a problem with me. Even in places where ONLY GSM cellular calls can be made, I have no trouble... based on the phone model. And I take it you are talking about data? Or Both? I am talking about making a phone call. AT&T does lock its phone. But I have never had a problem getting their support to send me the unlock code for phones and data cards. And on UTMS it does not matter whether it is voice or data as both travel on the same system. UMTS can do simultaneous voice and data.

But AT&T's network is not mostly UMTS and neither is most of the world. Most of the World is still on GSM. And CDMA EVDO Rev. A and B have the potential to do voice and data at the same time and SPRINT"S NEW PALM PRE CDMA PHONE will do simultaneous voice and data with a new thing called SV-DV
