Is Nokia E71 ever going to support T-mobile's 1700 mhz?
Anybody using Nokia E71-2 with T-mobile? I'm thinking on buying the phone on amazon (using gift card).
I'm thinking of waiting for a 1700mhz support but I browse around the internet and found no news about Nokia E71 supporting the frequency.
Also, I switch to prepaid and would like to know if T-mobile has a prepaid internet access card that I can buy or they have an internet access plan that I can used with my prepaid account.

there won't have band IV variation of E71
nokia made a major mistake on this one, perhaps 5730 will have it, but nobody knows this time
the next nokia phone will have band IV will be 5330

And no, there is no internet available for prepaid customers. If you don't want to do a credit check then look at FlexPay. However, if you're asking about internet for a laptop, T-Mobile hasn't set that up for FlexPay yet.

Disappointed with both T-mobile and Nokia ☹️ I'm a T-mo user since Voicestream days. T-mo a big company outside the US is so slow rolling out their 3G. Growth is really slow. Probably this is the reason very few wants (cellphone companies) to include the 1700 mhz freq. or maybe they thought T-mo is not going to push through it.
Why the odd 1700 mhz instead of 1900 mhz like At&t? Is there any advantages when using 1700?
Also T-mobile need nice phone selections to attract more customers

The 1900 mhz spectrum is saturated that is why new bands HAVE to be used. Its also why T-Mobile's 3G speeds are whooping AT&T's ass in actual performance. They have the same capability, but because the 1900Mhz spectrum is completely saturated, T-Mobile is getting faster actual speeds. T-Mobile can also not expand as quickly as other companies because T-Mobile does not have the deep pockets of AT&T and Verizon. Although T-Mobile's parent company is Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile USA operates independently.
The problem with the 1900MHz band being saturated is not unique to the US. The 1700Mhz bandwidth is now being opened up all over the world, most notably in South America. Verizon has also acquired a large chunk of 1700MHz spectrum in last yea...

Since right now it seems that the handful of AWS phones are mid-range (I have a 6263 that has been a good soldier for a year and a half now, but I want to jump up to a 5800 or Nseries device).
...
I wish I knew. I love the N Series. I would expect within the next year since many other countries are adding the 1700Mhz spectrum, but for now nothing is concrete.

let me correct it
the first AWS auction was held by FCC in August-September 2006
T-Mobile was the biggest owner of the spectrum
there's no doubt T-Mobile utilizes AWS for 3G, and we can expect they'll use the same band for LTE as well
since T-Mobile got 2 blocks of AWS spectrum, and UMTS only needs 10MHz block, that T-Mobile can reserve the rest for LTE, but this is possible to spare out some 1900 spectrum for LTE as well, for some markets they didn't gain 2 AWS blocks, and have at least 2.5MHz spared out from 1900
AWS becomes new cellular standard for American continent, including USA, Canada, and Latin American countries
nokia will bring out 5330, which should be one of the first unlocked phones with band IV (AWS) 3G, this is just a ...
