Wrong, you should research your topic better than this.

>This is true even if the carrier they are switching to offers the same phone made by the same manufacturer. For example, a Motorola Razr sold for Cingular's network won't work on T-Mobile's network, even though both Cingular and T-Mobile use the same underlying network technology, GSM.

Have you actually tried to move from Cingular to T-mobile? Did you bother to call and ask the dealer? I did it. Yes, T-mobile will arrange to have your phone unlocked if you purchased it from Cingular or any other GSM service provide as long as you can change the sim card in your phone. My wife brought her cell phone from Europe and used it here without problems. Once the cell phone is unlocked you may use it on any GSM network as long as it supports the frequency used in your local area.
