how is it being cautious? that is the ONLY thing that t mobile is lagging on...AWS and Cingular BOTH have EDGE network and BOTH are beginning to roll out UMTS networks (very very slowly...granted)

It's called being cautious in that Tmobile USA has caused Tmobile Europe a great deal of debt, and have since started climbing out of debt. Upgrading a network is expensive. Get it? Cautious? Good.

yeah, so being cautious=being behind the times when it comes to cell phone technology? smart move 🙄

Their financial situation dictates what they do. If you knew anything about the wireless industry or what kind of financial situation Tmobile was in, you'd know this. Tmobile USA incurred a very large debt load for Tmobile Europe. As EDGE and UMTS have become more prominent (Cingular and ATTWS) Tmobile's had to take a wait and see attitude. They'll eventually get around to it for the purpose of proper competition. Stop ragging them.

whatever d00d i dont need to validate myself on the internet

But hey, you've already validated yourself by your previous posts and your use of the word dOOd.

That may be a bad decision on Tmo's part. Sprint was planning on not doing 3g untill EV-DV came out but Verizon and AWS are comming out with their high speed internet and quickly changed their mind. Guess we will just have to see what happeneds as we arn't the guys that make those decisions.

agreed VOX, i mean TMO has some GREAT phones with some GREAT features, they used to have FREE WAP services but that has been taken away, now if they would get EDGE or UMTS i would gladly pay the $4.99 that they charge per month for unlimited data usage

mingkee, where did you hear that, and do you know when they come out?

let's hope that
and consider...EDGE will be out June next year nationalwide
check 3gamericas.org, and see the pdf

this has been verified mingkee? is there any news about tmo rolling out with a WCDMA network anytime soon?

what about a nokia 7610, i already have one but i want it to be offered by tMO so most of the features can work. right now i can only take pictures and use the mp3 player and talk. good reception.

TMo has spent too much money building the GSM network to spend any money on aging technology. As soon as the GSM network is big enough, WCDMA, TDMA, CDMA, all that stuff will go away. Think VHS and DVD.

DIU what the hell? you have that WAY confused, WCDMA is the NEW technology, GSM is the OLD technology, you are right though, GSM is VHS, WCDMA is DVD

Exactly what I said earlier...but in different words. Apparently our friend can't comprehend.

DIU..........WCDMA is NEW TECHNOLOGY GSM IS OLD TECHNOLOGY, apparently there is a MISUNDERSTANDING somewhere but its not here, why dont you go ahead and check into ntt docomo in japan and see what network they are using (yes they are about 5 years ahead of america) suprisingly its WCDMA IMAGINE THAT...... 🙄

I don't know what you're responding to, but it's certainly not my post.

So next time respond to the correct post, dOOd.

You know...your constant eye rolling reminds me of a Valley Girl.

and your constant e-thuggery reminds me of a timid little school boy who got beat up all the time 🤣

Now see, "e-thuggery" is SO much cooler than "dOOd". Valley Girl it is, then.
