T-Mobile today announced a significant expansion of its 42Mbps HSPA+ network, which reaches 56 new markets. Some of the new markets include Allentown, Pa., Boston, Mass., Hartford, Conn., Richmond, Va., and Tucson, Ariz. T-Mobile says that in these markets it is seeing average download speeds of 10Mbps, with peaks reaching 27Mbps. The 42Mbps network now reaches 170 million Americans across 152 markets, which T-Mobile notes is ahead of schedule. T-Mobile's 21Mbps HSPA+ network covers 200 million Americans in 190 markets. Right now, T-Mobile's only 42Mbps-capable device is the Rocket 3.0 USB dongle. While T-Mobile has introduced a few 21Mbps HSPA+ smartphones, it has yet to announce any new 42Mbps devices.
