NO carrier provides unlocked phones. Its bad business. An open source OS does not mean Tmobile wants to encourage you to buy their phones and use them on other carriers. They make money from the service, not the hardware. That said, Tmobile will unlock any phone, including the G1, after 90 days. I am on Tmobile and have unlocked my last 3 phones with no problem. Why would you want to pay $400 for a G1 to use on AT&T with no 3G?
