Default T-Mobile Web (Unlimited T-Zones) $5.99 Restoration

I just got off the horn with T-Mobile Blackberry-PDA Support. T-Mobile engineers ran some sort of test matching smart phones to the appropriate service they are to have. Those of us who have grandfather data plans were are knocked off today in preparation for T-Mobile releasing Windows Phone 7 devices from HTC, LG and Samsung starting next month. TMBS restored my SIM card settings on my lines on their end to match service codes on each of my lines That said, my internet service on my lines were restored prior to I calling them. I confirmed in another thread that changing my APN from "epc.tmobile.com" to "wap.voicestream.com" restored my internet service; however all of this being bang-bang; I can't be sure. All my lines came back up while adjusting my device settings and talking to TMBS.

HD2 users only - TMBS mentioned there have been some issues with the HD2s switching from Wi-Fi to Mobile Internet and obtaining internet service.
Sincerely,

Bill

I didn't touch a thing yesterday, just rode it out, and everything is working on my HD2 again this morning.
