Will 3G Microcell work with new Iphone 5?

Is it too early to know if the Iphone 5 will work with the 3G Microcells?

Can't find anything small and stiff enough to pop the SIM card - LOL!

Mine just showed up 5 minutes after following the steps above and then pulling out the SIM and reseating it.   Either AT&T has sent an update or just reseating the SIM does work.

How can I remove and readd my phone to microcell when it is the only device?

Popped out SIM with phone active - dismissed prompt asking for SIM.  Waited 2-3 mins.  Reinstalled SIM.  2 mins later - voila - AT&T M-Cell

 

Obviously I have no way of knowing if they pushed an upgrade, but at least it is working now!

Great so I deactivated my microcell and now it won't reactivate. Awesome.

Just got off the phone with At&t tech support for 3G microcell, according to this guy the entire system crashed with all of the Iphone 5 registrations. They will be updating registrations throughout the night and should be able to connect shortly. He also said there is no incompatibility or problem with IPhone 5 or the microcell. No need to reboot or re register, also has nothing to do with the new sim cards.

Does anyone else see "4G" instead of the normal "3G" next to "M-Cell" at the top of their phone?

 

I've never seen this before, but I'm also upgrading from an iPhone 4 which didn't have the 3.5G chip.
