All of T-Mobile's Android phones have this option. All of Roger's phones have this option.  AT&T just doesn't like the customer to choose which network they want to be on simple as that.  


If something is that important then maybe a change of carriers is indicated as it appears it is not going ot happen in the near future. ROI may just not be there to justify it


You keep bringing up the ROI as if it'll take some investment to put it in. In fact, on every AT&T 3G-capable phone that I could compare AT&T firmware to a stock one, including non-smartphones, the AT&T version of the firmware had that capability disabled, while stock version had it available. That tells me there was some investment in the AT&T firmware to remove it, so they must see it as a money-making feature for them. How it is making them money I have no idea…
