If 3G is available in your area, you'll get 3G. You don't need to pay extra for it.

... provided that your phone is compatible with the 3G of your carrier. For example, an AT&T USA 3G phone is generally not compatible with the 3G from T-Mobile USA... nor is a Wind Canada 3G phone compatible with the 3G from Rogers/Fido/Bell/Telus (Canada).
In the case of this forum/subforum, an unlocked AT&T Blackberry Bold 9700 won't get T-Mobile 3G even if you're located in a T-Mobile 3G area and an unlocked T-Mobile 3G Blackberry Bold 9700 won't get AT&T 3G even if you're located in an AT&T 3G area. The same goes with the Canadian carriers that I mentioned above... an unlocked Wind Blackberry Bold 9700 won't get 3G from Rogers/Fido/Rogers/Bell.
