There should absolutely be no issue except for a slightly inferior 3G coverage due to your phone not supporting UMTS at 1900 MHz.

That's what I said to my wife. Apparently the guy in the store put in a demo prepaid SIM into the phone and it didn't work so they told her not to buy since there is no refund and it doesn't seem to work.
Is it just a matter of manually rescanning networks to pickup AT&T?
