Correct. But the Tmobile one is the less bloated with third party software and the only one with Bluetooth access. The Tmobile one can act as a Hot Spot or do tethering without paying extra, which is kind of cool.

I've read some stuff online about how to hack it, but like I said, I did not buy or get it with a cellphone in mind; I was looking for a small tablet with full android market, something that I can use as an ereader for short sessions, browse internet "on the go", calendar, bank account access, etc.

Without a Bluetooth head set or similar, this thing is ridiculously big as a cellphone.
