yes...the phone supports 3g so it will work, worse case it needs a phone
reset/software flash...should only set you back £10-15

Try http://unlock.nokiafree.org/ - it works fine and supports a lot of
networks and Nokia models

How do you access the T-Mobile 3G service using a 2G SIM?

Virgin already do (voice only of course), so I see no reason why
T-Mobile wouldn't. AFAIK the only network not allowing 3G access at
the moment for existing 2G subscribers is Orange. (Tested with Virgin,
Orange, O2, Vodafone SIMs in an unlocked Motorola).
