lol Suckular I like that.
You like that? That is the most lame, idiotic thing I've ever heard.
It reminds me of a guy I once met in Colorado that referred to a local grocer, King Soopers, as 'King Stupids.' That's not even remotely original, it's just plain childish.

The CEO of T-Mobile USA said that 50% of the 3G network was finished in NY and that was in September. I heard rumors of a rollout this Spring.
The quicker the better. They need to start really competing with Cingular.
Also the 3G will be on 1700MHz bands. Will be a while before handsets are available with 1700 3G band.
I can't wait till they improve thier coverage Hopefully they will make cingular be more competetive (data price wise)

True but they're not stupid. They have to have at least a handset or 2 ready for when the network comes.
Exactly. Just like ANY other carrier would.

Hope you live in an Urban area. Those are the only places where T-Mobile is any good.

I'm not sure why this "argument" comes up...doesn't MOST of the country's population live in urban areas?
Your point is invalid.
1700mhz handsets should be ready for 3g launch.

Not only that look closely at there own coverage map online, with the right editing software you can remove the green that represents roaming and see the true picture. And like I said I travel exstensively for work here and abroad and in the U.S. I'd say about 75% of the time that I'd call 411 when I had T-mobile I'd get a Cingular operator. I just figured I might as well have em if I was using them already.
Though all this might be mute i...

and you'll see that Cingular does have more towers, but they don't own "65% of T-Mobile's network."

It amazes me when T-mobile people rant and rave about their coverage so much, do you not realize that 65% of your coverage is due to roaming agreements WITH Cingular/AT&T. So please explain how the coverage is better?
Now I am in NYC and I don't have good coverage in the sticks but I know that every time I decide to stay with TMo.

So please explain how the coverage is better? And before you criticize my comment due some research(i.e.- go around and dial 411 in random areas and see who answers the call) I just switched from t-mobile because I got tired of not being in my "T-zones" Maybe thats why my voice plan was cheaper on T-mobile...... they kept sticking it to me on data roaming!
Hey, people just care if their phone works. They don't care about roaming agreements. That's just us nerds on this site.
The only thing you know is, they made an announcement, and they obtained a ****load of spectrum in the 1700 and 2100Mhz spectrum. End of story.
There is only ONE vendor who has mentioned technology in those frequencies for the US. Take a guess who that was.. if you wer epaying attention, that is.
how can t-mobile offer such services when recent financiel news reported they are turning off a third of their towers???
