I work in one of the T-Mobile headquarter buildings in Factoria (Bellevue), WA and I’ve noticed my phone switching to 3G on an off throughout the work day. They must be testing. The odd thing is that I have the North American version of the N95 which shouldn’t be able to pick up the T-Mobile 3G frequencies. I hope I can use 3G when it’s out, but I’m guessing when it’s all said and done I’ll still be using Edge.

From talking with a T-Mobile agent extensively, most of the markets that are going to launch 3G initially have all the equipment in place, they just cannot activate it until the government (they were using the bands first), vacates the bands. So basically its out of their hands.

And also, they said end of October will be a huge phone launch, and likely to be the biggest nationwide launch of 3G, but some other markets pretty much ready to go might launch before then, and some might come after.

She also said that they plan to be the first US carrier to offer a Google Android device (and she hinted that it will be 3G capable). She also said that the 3G launch will bring Tmo Sony Ericsson devices back to the US. Yay! Only good news to hear.

I’m surprised she revealed all this, but hey, thats why I love T-Mobile.

Oh and it will be the 1700/2100 band for 3G, incase you didn’t know. And yeah its different from any 3G network, so phone choices will probably be pretty slim at first. Oh well.

T-Mobile’s 3G is going to be on 1700 mHz, which is different from all other 3G networks out there. Meaning, everyone will have to buy a new phone.
