Looking for a non-AT&T Windows phone

Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a new phone and interested in a Windows Phone 7. I currently use a Nokia 5800 mostly because it's an unlocked phone that is not charged the data premium from AT&T. I only pay $10 for unlimited data and I'd like to find a Windows Phone that can do the same.

My theory is, if phone is carried by AT&T, it can be recognized and then they'll ask you to increase your data plan.

So any suggestions or ideas would be great.
Thanks.

I would imagine the Nokia Lumia 800 as it's not officially offered in the United States.

Not sure if that is going to work anymore. AT&T now knows what kind of phone you have, and if you have a smartphone, unlocked or not, you may get notified to get a data plan. This has been happening even on unlocked Android phones, like the Nexus One which is not offered by AT&T, yet N1 users are notified if they don't have data plan.
