But no 3G with TM on the iPhone. TMUSA HSDPA runs on a proprietary band in the USA. We will see a CDMA iPhone or LTE iPhone which will have a much larger customer base before we see a 1700 HSDPA iPhone. The LTE iPhone will have 700/1700 bands, both ATT and VZ plan to run LTE on their 700 and 1700 bands.

For some time you could easily purchase an iPhone on eBay (or on certain cell phone sales sites) that is unlocked and will work with T-Mobile....Probably a 3G one too.

Nope. T-Mobile uses the 1700/2100 AWS band for 3G. There is no iPhone with this band configuration. While you can get an unlocked iPhone that will run on any GSM carrier, you will not get 3G service on T-Mobile with it.

Was not sure about 3G, however, someone I know has an iPhone which he uses on the T-Mobile network.

He can use it, but he's only getting EDGE data.

Thousands of people already run unlocked iPhones on T-Mobile/Any GSM carrier.
