Apple's US site doesn't say anything about this (yet), but several of their international sites say that it won't work:
that says the ipad sim wont work in the iphone not the other way around, it probably still doesn't work but its worded so that it only says that the ipad sim wont work in the iphone it might be a "trick". but like i said it probably wont work
the iPhone 4 will be in the hands of millions by the weeks end (if I'm correct on the dates) so the best way to know is then only as people would try it out. I cannot answer right now as I do not know but if I happen to try it myself, i'll be sure to post back 
So I gave it a shot - changed the APN name to "phone" like the modmyi forum suggested for 3G sim...no such luck for this guy. Hoping there's a workaround so I can use my giant iPod Touch on the road without paying for more data!
I can't use both concurrently, so yes, I do wonder. Still using unlimited data that I paid for on their network with devices supported by them. Not an ethical issue for me.
In other news, as has been reported by someone else on the forum, it does work when you don't type in "phonr".
