@ZeRoCo0L - no excuse if we are to fully buy into this 3G coverage is what matters most perpetrated by Verizon. You would think Google a fairly well run company, would have learned from the Apple / AT&T "3G coverage" debacle. To launch your premier device on T-mobile only which has the least 3G coverage IS A BIG MISTAKE!
PS The N1 should have supported ALL frequencies (i.e. 850 and 1900mhz for 3G HSPA).
That map is out of date. If you want to get snippy about it, T-Mobile has had far less time for 3G, and they're about to catch up to AT&T very soon. That's the sad part, paying all of that money to AT&T only to have them lag on 3G coverage.
That, and AT&T's 3G coverage is maybe 2x the size, and that's only currently, T-Mobile hasn't stopped. The only carrier that should be bragging is Verizon and they're going to get the Nexus one, next. So what's the point really? If you're not one of the 200+ million covered by T-Mobile 3G, Verizon will probably be there. AT&T should be getting the scolding for their 3G coverage, not T-Mobile.
@bighap T-mobile does not have the best coverage, been on them for over a year with my G1, but i can tell you that at least in northern california that ATT is worse than T-mobile by far, my GF has ATT and never gets a signal when i have one and vise versa, plus she gets dropped calls just like everyone at my work does on their ATT phones and i rarely ever get any on T-mobile
for the money i save every month only having to pay 53 dollars vs 100 on ATT for the same or worse coverage i'll keep T-mobile thanks
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

And you thought AT&T 3G was bad. Dark purple is 3G.

Well yea but they don't charge as much as AT&T does and all of T-mobile's 3G is HSDPA unlike AT&T's.

@Frankenstein Black
Well people getting this should know T-Mobile's coverage.

@ASEVENSEE4
Correct. Just like AT&T says they 'cover' 230 million people (doesn't mean that many use it), T-Mobile covers 200 million people in the US.
So T-Mobile's 3G actually isn't that bad.
