I was interested in the Nokia E71, which isn't sold by any carrier in the US, but it uses AT&T's frequencies. I hate AT&T so I was trying to find out if the 3G would work on T-Mobile (it won't).

I currently have a Windows mobile phone that I've currently got configured to go through the T-Zones proxy. It the difference between paying 4.99 and 19.99.

This is basically what I meant.. As far as I can tell, and as far as any T-Mobile sales people are aware of, there's no such thing as a "high speed" data plan. They have unlimited plans but they function at any speed the phone and the network support. The cheapest unlimited data plan they have in my area is branded for the Sidekick, but includes extras that more expensive data plans don't have at all. They said that it was cheaper because it has to go through the Sidekick makers servers in addition to T-Mobile's servers, and that double bandwidth usage makes it cheaper (??!)
I'll have to look into the T-Zones proxy you mentioned.
Though, if that's not feasible, $25 for unlimited data is less than the Sidekick plan I mentioned.. Thanks for all the info!
