They may most likely make a public notice on how to do so, like those ads you see lawyers make on TV.

That you'll probably use to pay them for your next bill. Unless you switched providers, then you'll pay that party.

Will this affect Verizon's LTE in that area that they are swapping?

Also, does this mean that USCC will use that 700Mhz for LTE?

I'd rather they do the whole 'fastest 3g network' argument with AT&T.

I agree. T-Mobile should definetely get some 700mhz goodies, even though they may not plan to deploy LTE soon.

Re: Not worth upgrading to--

in the Samsung Nexus S forum

Agreed. As a nexus one owner, this doesn't seem that big of an upgrade. heck, the droid x and evo are better phones (albeit CDMA), and I was even disappointed that Google didn't make it worthy this time.

in the Article: Samsung and Google Officially Announce the Nexus S with NFC forum

Only worthy diff I see with the N1 is a bigger screen, more on-board memory. However, possibly no microsd card slot. Frankly, doesn't seem that big of an 'upgrade' from the Nexus One.

Re: at&t with edge only? what does that mean?
Dec 6, 2010, 6:57 PM
in the Article: Samsung and Google Officially Announce the Nexus S with NFC forum

It means you get edge only. AT&T's 3G works on 850mhz and 1900mhz frequencies. T-Mobile's on 1700/2100mhz (or referred to as just 1700). So because of those differences, right now, you're stuck on edge. On the contrary though, AT&T's edge is more widespread than its 3G coverage.

Re: unlocked will work for at&t?
Dec 6, 2010, 5:52 PM
in the Article: Samsung and Google Officially Announce the Nexus S with NFC forum

it should work on att edge, assuming it will be unlocked. since they did the same stunt last time, i wouldnt be surprised if they released an ATT version like 2 months later.

microSD card

in the Article: Samsung and Google Officially Announce the Nexus S with NFC forum

Yes it has 16GB onboard, but does it have a microSD slot? I didn't see it mentioned on the website.

Re: Don't do it T-Mo!
Dec 2, 2010, 7:12 PM
in the Article: Sprint Supports Idea of T-Mobile Investing in Clearwire forum

I'm pretty sure T-Mo will stick with LTE. Whatever tech they use in EU will be the one they'll use here. I think the reason they may invest in Clearwire is if Clear decides to switch from WiMax to LTE, or get access to more spectrum. However, nothing is certain until officially announced.

He/She probably might mean an actual LTE radio.

Which Carrier?
Nov 23, 2010, 1:09 PM
in the Article: Acer Intros Android-Based Smartphone with 4.8-Inch Display forum

T-Mobile, AT&T? It says HSDPA 14.4, so it would be interesting if it was like the 2nd or 4th hspa phone from t-mobile.

Unless if they introduce tiered speed plans too along with tiered bandwidth usage.

They'll probably overcharge on those minutes too. Might as well go back to pigeons. Put some 160 characters on a little piece of rolled up paper. Better to feed it and deal with the crap.

So much for the network. If every carrier starts doing this, I'll happily go back to a good ol' fashioned prepaid phone that just calls. It will be enough.

Re: what is the freaking point moving to LTE??
Nov 17, 2010, 10:17 PM
in the Article: Verizon Considers Plans Based On Speed, As Well As Data forum

It would still be a Mercedes....in name only. This is pointless. They already said that 'bucket of bytes' was 'inevitable'. But this...really? sure, brag about 4g speeds and then make it slower than EV-Do. Also, this could be very complicated for the consumer. With different data usage, and speeds, consumers will have to look at a matrix of pricing options. This could (will) suck.

No I just meant to say that since he (or most people) wouldnt download bing it had to be preinstalled.

I can tell you after about 6 months of usage, it is definitely not my handheld. A G2 customer who posted his review on youtube also mentioned of this issue. I have been told by T-Mobile reps that upgrading ALL of their 3G towers to full fiber backhaul is a work-in-progress, so pretty soon all t-mobile towers in most 3G areas should see fast speeds.

in the Article: AT&T Says T-Mobile's '4G' Numbers Are Wrong forum

If by full deployment you mean overlaying their entire 2G and 3G network with LTE, then I find that hard to believe. It's been about 5 years since they started 3G, and AT&T hasn't blanketed their 2G network with 3G. I believe it would start in metro areas, then slowly expand outward.

To allow us to drive the car from our phones. That would be cooool. On a related note, will this allow us to shut off the car completely in case it gets stolen?

Mathematically speaking, numbers can be rounded up. Explains the whole 4g, 3g claim. So 3.5, 3.51, 3.75 could be rounded up to 4G. But then 2.75 could be rounded up to 3G. Damn, EDGE was a 3G network, and most of us already had 4G networks (3.5G technically). Who knew? Looking forward to 5G? Ok. My 2 cents: Get rid of 3g, 4g bs, and just tells us what speeds the networks are. That is all I want from the cell ...

Does that mean it COULD work on AT&T's 3G network? (Atleast in places that use 850MHz). I know in my city they use it.

Really?

Why not jump ship to 2.2 instead of TESTING 2.1? Not to mention Gingerbread (3.0 or 2.3) is around the corner...
