I averaged just under 600mbps download. I was tethering with a dash 3g, which theoretically is capable of receiving a 7.2 download speed. is it only certain locations in chicago that are upgraded? I would think the loop would be one of them. i’m in the south end of the Chicago loop and i just ran 5 speed tests from http://www.speakeasy.net, which i normally use to determine my ul/dl speed.

I just ran a speed test that is normal for me all over the city. 128 kbits/sec...yeah....pretty much edge speed but it says it has a 3G connection. T-mo has got so much smoke and so many mirror. Get regular 3G to work at regular speed first. You don't even compete with the big 3 on 3G speed now....it's EDGE speed and you are calling it 3G!... On a good day, I'll get 250kbits/sec...yeah...that is BITS not Bytes. I’m in a 3G city.

My 3G speeds are the same as alwayss. And I have a G1, correct me if I'm wrong but, the G1 is supposedly capable of 7.2 mpbs downlink. BTW I'm also in NYC which is saod to be lit with HSPA 7.2 Also if they're releasing HSPA 7.2 are they really going to light up HSPA + (21 Mbps) by this year too? Maybe I read older posts wrong but...I highly doubt they're gooing to deliver such expensive technologies within such a short period of time...especially considering their late entry in the 3G world.

I have 3G in the area where I live and where I mostly travel to so I won't be switching but it does make T-Mobile seem like its number 4 for a reason =[ I love T-Mobile and all but their 3G coverage area does look pretty small :( especially when you see Verizon’s commercials for their 3G network.
