Yes. Configuration settings are in the support section of T-Mo's website.

Yea but seriously.. Can I buy an unlocked Treo and use it with
T-Mobile's data services?

No, T-Mo only puts support pages up for phones that they sell. I assumed
(but you know what they say about when you "ass u me") newer Palm-based
Treos would be close enough for you to fake it.

That's probably because the 600 is the last Treo that T-Mo supported or
provided.

I had no problems with my unlocked GSM Treo 680, but whenever it resets (less
and less frequently these days) I have to go into preferences and re-select
T-Zones as my Internet connection, since it automatically reverts to T-Mobile
Internet, which I don't have.

Other than that, it's fine, using those settings.
