I just got an 8290 from voicestream and it worked right out of the box. Took, literally, a minute to put in the phone number and hit connect. I had asked the guy at voicestream about the data service (which is 20 something a month extra) and he told me that I did not need it, that it would work fine just using it's regular minutes calling the isp.
