TMO Branded TREO180, Anyone know how to add a new APN?

As per usual, I am in the midst of a TMO support "LOOP". The TMOBILE Branded/Distributed TREO 180 has 2 APN's setup in it's Network Setup. You have a choice of TMOBILE Internet (uses APN wap.voicestream2.com ) or TMOBILE VPN ( wap.voicestream3.com ) The Network Setup page is LOCKED. So you cannot add or alter any of the APN settings. Thus, to access TZONES or use FREE Internet access APN ( wap.voicestream.com ), I need to add that APN, and cannot.

My question is this, has anyone had TMOBILE unlock the network Settings so you can add the wap.voicestream.com APN or tell you where to download a file etc, so that you can access the FREE internet access? ( So far I have met with claims after 3 different calls to Customer Support, who transferred me somewhere, even though I asked for Data Support, that they have no access to that feature)

Also, Handspring says it is a carrier dependant feature and they cannot help.
So basically the world is trying to tell me that unless I want to use the 2 NETWORK settings that are in the TREO180 now, I could just as well throw it away. And that, I am not buying. What if TMO changes their APN settings, all TREO 180's become worthless? Also, it is already SIM unlocked, so that is not the answer either.
