(scroll up slightly from there to see the five "major" UMTS bands identified.
NOTE: GSM/EDGE band support is different from UMTS band support. Except where explicitly stated, the rest of this is about UMTS bands.
Band IV is T-Mobile USA's high speed data band.
Bands II and V are AT&T's high speed data bands.
The Galaxy Nexus has bands I, II, IV, V, VIII

iPhones (the GSM versions, not the Verizon versions) omit band IV, so they won't work on T-Mobile USA's UMTS data network.
T-mobile phones typically (and varyingly) omit bands II, V, and/or VIII.
I suggest searching phonearena for a handful of modern phones and comparing the supported GSM (& EDGE) bands (where most/all smartphones are quad-band) and UMTS bands (where supported bands are much more varying).
