Where's T-Mobile's 3G???

If Cricket is launching their AWS 1700 network next month, how come T-Mobile still hasn't launched 3G in this market as well? Obviously the spectrum is now free so I wonder what the delay is.

🙄

Because there are bigger markets where 3G will be more effective. I.E. New York City and Seattle.

Could more people complain about T Mobile's 3G roll out? Seriously. 🤨

to be fair the other big 4 other carriers only have a 3.5 year head start on them... even cricket, a mid size regional carrier, has had 3g for almost a year now in some areas.

Not to be rude, but for the millionth time, Sprint, Alltel, Verizon, US Cellular, ect. are CDMA carriers, they DO NOT have 3G, they have a similar thing called EVDO and EVDO Rev. A

This is true. I work for Att and all the other carriers only have CDMA. We just finished that lesson in class last week. 😁

Okay. Lets clear something up. *sigh*

I would hardly call 1xRTT a 3G network. 1xEV-DO sure.

"This is true. I work for Att and all the other carriers only have CDMA. We just finished that lesson in class last week."

No. T-Mobile is GSM as is at&t. Sprint, Verizon, Alltel, Cricket, and US Cellular are all CDMA.

Suncom is also GSM, but was recently bought by T-Mobile.

I didn't say at&t is CDMA, I said:

"T-Mobile is GSM as is at&t"

If you don't know that at&t uses GSM technology, you probably shouldn't be working for them.
