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.
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

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

nokia will bring out 5330, which should be one of the first unlocked phones with band IV (AWS) 3G, this is just a ...
