That document also doesn't have the HTC Touch Pro 2 on it, but T-Mobile just started offering that phone. Keep in mind that the N900 was independently developed, while there was cooperation on the phones on that list. This document isn't a high indicator of whether N900 will be offered by T-Mo sometime this year.

Well, I'm still waiting on the 3G version of the n900. I'm not too thrilled about the pricetag, but if it (the 3G version) can be used both in the USA and overseas, then I'm golden. If not, then I guess I'll have to wait a couple years until I'm back from Taiwan to get one.

I wish someone would address this for me, too. Does it support Band I and IV, or just one of the two?

It supports both. There is only one model of the N900 (RX-51) that has been circulating among the press and it passed the FCC a little while ago.

Here's the FCC report:
https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/prod/oet/f...ive_or_pdf=pdf

Scroll to page 3 and you'll very clearly see "WCDMA 1700/2100". In other words, *you will get 3G on T-Mobile US as long as you're in an area with 3G coverage*.
To further confirm this, a HoFo (Howard Forums) member recently visited the NYC Nokia Flagship store and tested out the N900 with his own T-Mobile sim card. The 3G symbol showed up as expected. I believe he even put up a picture showing this.

I really don't get why there's so much confusion over this. T-Mobile US customers are set. It's us AT&T customers that are out of luck. All we can do is hope that Nokia will release a device relatively soon with 3G support for our network.

The confusion concerns whether the N900 will work on both the Euro/Asian 3G networks and the U.S. 2100mhz 3G network.
This has been answered in the thread "3G in U.S. vs Europe/Asia."

Or you can simply buy TMobile SIM card and continue using TMobile instead of AT&T. Can't you?
