In larger cities and along major >highway corridors, you'll be fine, however. GSM coverage in that part of VA is spotty...mostly along the major highways. T-Mobile's map appears to claim coverage in Charlottesville, possibly along 29 to Lynchburg and south to Danville, and along the I-81 corridor...it's hard to tell, as it does not identify any of those cities, just the larger cities like Richmond. If they aren't wedded to GSM, I'd recommend a carrier like Alltel (CDMA) in Charlottesville. They have extensive coverage, and roam on Verizon outside the Alltel service area.
