According to GSMWorld (and Howardforums) Alltel offers GSM service to
roaming customers. If you were absolutely determined to run your iPhone
on Alltel ... you would set it up on some other carrier and go someplace
where Alltel provides roaming access to that carrier.

This begs the question 'can you get the data service you need while
roaming." You could certainly make phone calls over Alltel with any GSM
phone while roaming as I describe.
