It'll be available unlocked so there shouldn't be a problem putting it on T-Mobile unless they ignore 1700MHz UMTS or something silly. That's not impossible, when they released the 9290 in the US, GPRS was in full swing and the two biggest GSM operators, AT&T and Cingular (for they were separate) were running dual 850/1900MHz networks. Nokia made the utterly bizarre decision to limit the 9290 to 1900MHz, and CSD data.
I've always been a disappointed fan of the 9000 series. I loved my original 9000 though it had limitations, went with the 9290, and gave up on the phones after reading the 9300/9500 specs. The phones are ok, but the lack of a touchscreen (or other pointing device) really limited the UI. The build quality has also always been low, with my 9000's battery expanding and blowing apart, and the 9290 just falling to pieces.
And now they're planning to release this just at the same time as Google is coming out with a decent phone OS and UI. I hope it's the phone that finally lives up to the promise.
