I dont know is t mo has a dissconnect from what people want or they just want to go down the drain with sprint.. I mean even they have the hero why cant t mo get any good android phone and we had a 1 year head start.

I’m with Kershon – I hope they get some new thinking on the high-end handsets. The list so far has been little by missteps and too-little-too-late. Bringing Android was a bold step, but rolling the G1 as the first phone was a giant mistake when all the buzz was about the iPhone. The MyTouch is a nice enough device; had IT come first we would have had a better start. By the time it rolled for TMo it was overshadowed by the Hero; suddenly the MyTouch seemed a bit old and simple. The Cliq seems nice enough, especially if the social media thing is for you (I doubt I’d find use for any of that), but a decent phone has been completely oublinged by Verizon’s launch of the Droid. Yes it’s a slab, a big slab at that. Yes, the keyboard is a bit iffy. But that screen! The fast processor!! Android 2.0!! And I’m still waiting for the next drop from AT&T. Sooner or later they’ll have fixed their network probs and move back into getting some leading edge handsets launched.

TMo needs someone that can actually look at where the market is heading and plant a flag out there. All they’ve done so far has been just shy of the leading edge, and that’s not going to win them converts in the high-end business.

Agreed…Mt3g, the Cliq and Behold2 are good phones but they are not the kind of phones that will have customers come running to sign up w/ Tmobile. They need to do better…bring phones like…HTC DRAGON, HTC HD2, Motorola Milestone(Droid) and the Nokia N900 to Tmobile…that will be a step in the right direction.

It will nice if Tmobile can also get the Htc Hero…but they should have a different designed from the original Hero…one without the chin and maybe a 3.5inch screen, more Ram and a faster processor of 600 plus, a 5meg cam etc

The job postings that would impress me are ENGINEERING jobs. It takes switch techs, field techs, and RF engineers to support a nationwide rollout of 3G. More than 10,000 new 3G rbs cabinets and not ONE new field tech position? 1,000′s of new switch related gear and not one new switch tech, or NOC tech? A massive project to re-visit all those cell sites to upgrade them to HSPA+ and no new support staff in field or switch operations?

I’ve been hoping that they fired the person for the longest. I’ve been with tmobile for 7 years and I have the g1. I’m going to cancel my service and goto to verizon with my girl. Tmobile doesn’t know how to compete with nice phones. When tmobile grows up and stop getting these kid phones like the mytouch and cliq i,I will be back. Maybe I was told by tmobile that I would have to pay full price for a shitty phone like the behold 2($409.00) . Forget that id rather get a verizon phone. The droid at that. Tmobile needs to do better and get more competive grown phones.

Agreed. But you know, there are always those cheap screws that want something for nothing. If the phones were free they would find something else to bitch about. I may be wrong, but I can’t remember these people bitching about the phone prices on the other carriers. And their phones are not inexpensive by any means.

I hope if T-mobile does start to carry very high end, fast and incredible devices, people won’t expect to get them for $100….it won’t happen. If you all want high end, top of the line devices, I hope you know you have to pay a bit for them. I have just read soooo many blogs where people just go on and on about how t-mobile should only charge $50 for the 9700 3G Blackberry or $50 for the my touch. Look, if you want high end expensive devices, be prepared to pay for them.
