hey all Im currently with tmobile and was wondering if anyone knows when or if they will unroll any highspeed data any time soon?

I was also wondering if anyone knows how to accelerate the data from the current EDGE on the tmobile MDA so i can stream my slingbox. thanks! 🙂

Sorry but they are in no hurry to roll out any 3g service. I don't even think they have an expected date!

There is an expected date. But T-Mobile isn't going to release that date too early because that would create an expectation and what if something happens that causes them not to meet it? Use your head.

oh please what are they the only one that won't release dates. Verizon and more so sprint releases dates all the time. I think it says allot for a company to release a date one. And two meet that date!

They just got the spectrum! We should be considered lucky if they get much launched before the end of the year. Nokia and Ericsson are the ones that are going to help with the new network. (that was end of november.) That article said this:

"Services are expected to begin in mid-2007, according to previous statements by the company."

It's not even close to mid-2007. It isn't like flipping a switch. It will happen.. Just not overnight.

And you know verizon and sprint have been working on their network much longer than the time t-mobile was awarded the spectrum. Do we have a time line with what verizon was going to do with the new spectrum they won?

To be honest Tmobile (voicestream had one if not the first GSM network in the country!) But well before Sprint and Verizon started CDMA!

For some reason, i think sprint had the first gsm network in the states with it's "Sprint Spectrum" service. That was in washington dc. They started it back in november 1995.

But we are not even talking about gsm here. They are launching a new 3G WCDMA network. It isn't like they flip a switch.
