I don't think you'll be able to use an 8830 on AT&T. The 8830 does not operate on North American GSM frequencies. That device works on Sprint and Verizon Wireless--maybe other CDMA carriers. For CDMA, generally, the carrier must accept the ESN to activate the device.

Yup, the GSM feature is only for non-North American carriers. It's designed for CDMA in North America and roaming on GSM in Europe and other foreign lands.
