i'll pass

well 4g is already out in the U.S. and 5g in Japan, but some people are still using 2g...

i guess this is our wacky world.]]>Mar 23rd 2010 7:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/Mar 23rd 2010 7:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/Mar 23rd 2010 8:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/if you mean 4G as in WiMax, they're getting 25 mbps downloads. TMobile will have 21 mbps downloads using the old 3G hardware, costing consumers little, and allowing all legacy 3G devices to use it.

4G will cost more, won't work with current devices, and all for just an extra 4 mbps?! No thanks. I'll wait for LTE to mature first and stick to the economical 3G. TMobile's 3G may not be a massive footprint, but the amount of covered population isn't that far from at&t's, and its massively more reliable in places that are covered. ]]>Mar 23rd 2010 8:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/Mar 23rd 2010 8:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/

Meaning we are going to be on it like Moths on Lamps. Sprint being the lamp that is actually a UV Fly Trap that will eventually electrocute us but we will be drawn to it anyways because the bulb it uses is the HTC EVO. Luring us with HSDPA+ and taking shots at Sprint is futile in the face of the all mighty EVO.

I'm begging you, T-Mo. Call HTC right now and ask them to design a god phone, specifically for your HSPA network. If this doesn't happen well, Sprint is looking mighty good right now.]]>Mar 23rd 2010 8:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/TMo has revamped its lineup, and has Symbian, WinMo, Android, Blackberry, and soon WebOS devices. They have the HD2 and TP2, the Nuron and other Nokia models coming, are the leaders in Android devices with the MyTouch, G1, and Cliq, etc.

Maybe you should check them out this year. They're on a roll, in my opinion, and the reason Verizon and at&t are working to upgrade their lineups to keep up.]]>Mar 23rd 2010 8:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/Mar 23rd 2010 10:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/"I want screen real estate and snapdragon/1GB RAM.

The wiser thing to do is just create your coverage area, and make sure those within that coverage area have the best service possible before trying to cover more of the population at less density and higher cost. This keeps satisfaction rates higher, lowers churn, and promotes evangelism.

They are making sure they have the capacity to serve those they already cover before looking to extend those coverage boundaries further. There are new areas being added, but they're also updating the existing infrastructure to bring it to the standard of European networks, which are usually faster with higher capacity and reliability.]]>Mar 24th 2010 8:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/Mar 23rd 2010 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/
T-Mobile needs to hurry up and release 4g soon!]]>Mar 24th 2010 1:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/23/t-mobile-usa-reiterates-that-breadth-of-3g-footprint-will-get/those that merely fall for marketing gimmicks like 3G, HD, and 2.0 might think we need 4G, but that's not what we're paying for. What we're paying for is speed, and 4G isn't a speed. Its a label given to a next gen protocol and equipment flavor. But what you may not get is that there are 3G network technologies that surpass current WiMax speeds, so the 3G at TMobile will be close to the same speed, only at a lower cost.

TMobile is wise to do this, providing 4G quality speeds at little cost to deploy. They will wait for the 4G technologies to mature and ramp up speeds, as well as for the cost of equipment to lower, before investing into a nascent technology. This is wise, since the 3G upgrade they apply goes to all customers, while a 4G deployment would only affect those using 4G devices.]]>Mar 24th 2010 8:42AM
