They have lots millions by not offering a Blackberry 3G, left in the dust while AT&T is raking in huge profits (I'm sure) with the iPhone and Bold! That's sad. Very sad for those devoted customers like myself who like their prices and service. Hope they really make a push or else they're going to lose to the point of no recovery. *sniff sniff* Tmobile needs to dish some cash out so they can really compete with other carriers!

So even if ur city/town doesn't have 3G yet, u can still get 3G if u live within 5 miles or less of a tmobile call center. I know there's about 25 call centers from mission texas to Lenexa Kansas to Maine. I live about 2 1/2 miles from one in the middle of nowhere and I always have full signal on my G1. And to the person complaining how tmobile customer service is bad lemme ask u this: how many awards has verizon won? They bought one but that's all they will get. If you didn't act like a no-class piece of trailer trash when u call customer service u might get better results. I know southerners aren't classy to begin with but at least pretend. Noone is nice to whiners and trash. Not even customer service. Tmo 4 life beotches Tmobile is also installing 3G towers in all their call centers.

A lot of people have tmobile where I live and it is not fair to them. But we do have very good EDGE coverage. I wish they put it here in Albuquerque.

I just thought they would take all that time waiting for the govt. to get off that spectrum to make preparations for the buildout so that it can be expanded rapidly. It almost sounds like they're dragging their feet in order to save money. I don't blame them, I'm just sayin..... I thought it would make sense to build out 3G as much as possible and migrate as many users off of the old PCS network to free it up for LTE style technologies. But the way they keep pushing 2G only devices they probably have no plans to do this for a very long time. @ J: That makes sense.
