If the router / access point (to which you're trying to connect) is configured to use WPA, then the iPhone will ask for a WPA key. You don't just tell the iPhone "I want to use WPA now" - the iPhone needs to do what the other side of the link wants. This is nothing to do with your 3G provider: the same settings apply to the iPod Touch, which has no phone or 3G at all, or any other WiFi device.
