However, upon our return, I was a good two miles inside the US, turned my Blackberry on and got "Rogers Wirelss" on my screen. So I hope I don't get charged for that. I was well inside the US then.

Yes you will. On Pt Loma in San Diego, about 20 miles from the Mexican border, I picked up a Telcel signal. If I had used the phone, it would have been as though I was in TJ.
When driving into El Paso, it is very common to pickup Movistar.
I'm switching my phone to AT&T and leaving the wife on T-Mobile until November. Her phone works for her (flip Blackberry), but I want 3G for my Treo Pro.
I'm coming up on 2 years with the Treo Pro, getting time to find a replacement. I think it will be the the HP Glisten and I expect it will be free or nearly free as I switch.
