stupid question..

Not really iphone specific...but..

Getting the 3GS..getting it unlocked to T-mobile (jalibreak/unlock)..
Going to get the web'n'walk package from T-mobile for unlimted internet access..

Question is - if i go abroad to say Europe/US is web'n'walk still free? I believe the answer is no, but just wanted some quick confirmation..

Re: stupid question..

I don't know the web'n'walk details...but would assume no, it won't be free. I can't see any operator doing a worldwide inclusive data package without it being silly money.
