I've done Fring over EDGE and had ok connections. Latency and echos are the number one complaint.

You're doing a UMA call while in Dubai? I though TMo's service was for continental USA only, as soon as it would register with the VPLMN's VLR, TMo's HLR would refuse the UMA traffic until you re-register in the USA. Oh wait, I see, UMA device is attached in Wi-Fi only, radio is off, no attach outside USA yet (since you probably turned off the radio before leaving USA) and the cradlepoint has a cellular data connection (local prepaid, local postpaid or international roaming?) to carry the UMA traffic. Humm, I like this idea. Great if you have a good data plan in that location. Is it AT&T's 881U? I have the same card on my CTR500. I should look into T-Mo UMA and BBs. If only the damn BBs could get their emails with the radio at off, they don't seem to be able to get them with only Wi-FI, need to have the providers gouge us!
