Anybody have an iPhone on CellOne/Dobson

Just wondering the usability of an unlocked iPhone on Dobson/CellularOne! Mainly the visual voicemail, and data services (which package, signalink or BlackBerry plan)?

PS I know the takeover's the 9th... but if I get cell one now, I get grandfathered in with, oh, say, an unlimited plan!

I'm on Cellular One with an iphone and it works great. Don't have a data plan though. Visual voicemail will not work.

I wondered about that (Dobson's Cell One brand is prevalent in western OK)... my guess is maybe. However, we'll only know when the acquisition is complete and AT&T takes over Dobson's accounts.
Some legacy AT&T plans didn't allow for an iPhone data plan, so YMMV when the time comes.

ADDENDUM: Don't expect visual voicemail with an unlocked iPhone (even used under AT&T without an iPhone plan), it's tied to the iPhone data plan.
As for data, I would guess as long as you know how to configure the APN you should be able to use non-Blackberry data services just fine.
