What We Think June 19th Is, But What Do You Want It To Be?



Just over one week ago, the guys over at Engadget got their hands on a some myTouch Slide documents containing all sorts of goodies about the device. However, one piece of information contained within these documents set off a mystery. On June 19th, it was stated “STAY TUNED – THIS WILL BE BIG.” Well, we didn’t think anything of it really other than it would be a myTouch Slide promotional effort until we got word later that day that T-Mobile retail stores across the country would be opening two hours early that day. So naturally, we asked the hamster in our brain to start working a little harder and have spent quite a bit of time since then trying to figure out what exactly would case T-Mobile stores to open nationwide.

Now lets just get this out of the way, the information itself was contained within an myTouch Slide informational packet. Some of our astute blog commenter’s  are playing connect the dots with information and have come up with the theory its absolutely going to be the iPhone. What else they say, could make T-Mobile open early that day? Well, lets just spoil this rumor right now, there is ZERO indication of an iPhone launch on T-Mobile. We’re not saying its not possible, anything’s possible, but the odds are so astronomically low and yet some of you continue to theorize it’s the only possibility. So I ask those of you who seem to be so good at predicting the future, can you tell me why my beloved Chicago Cubbies will win the world series?

So what do we think this promotion is? Actually we believe and all our info current points to a BIG promotion as stated in T-Mobile’s own words.  Some of the more prevalent rumors are a big fathers day promotional sale, “No More Ties For Dad.” This promotion, if true would see a number of free phones, including smartphones that would go free for new line customers. Possibility of this rumor? Big big maybe. We’ve also heard this promotion will be “better than the BOGO.” That’s not hard, two free phones is better than one free phone. Simple.

Recapping: Its a promotion but not the iPhone. It likely involves the myTouch Slide, not the iPhone. The Cubs need to win a world series, the iPhone doesn’t.

What do you want it to be? If you say iPhone, I’ll let that go, if you say you think its the iPhone, I’m going to scream.

    maybe if it is a promotion, data plans might be 10 bucks with a buy one get one smart phone. Damn wouldnt that be nice??

    • glomom

      there are new plans coming out. data will be purchased in blocks or unlimited. $25.00 = 400mg…this is used by ALL lines on plan instead of per phone.

  • http://sopboxunivers@bloggspot.com K. Ray

    We will know if it is a Iphone launch after Steve Jobs address to the developers conference. Forget the name calling and look at the facts. 1. AT&T has increased its early termination fee. 2. T-Mobile says the early opening of the stores is for the expectation of Black Friday (Day After Thanksgiving) Traffic. 3. AT &T has announced a cap on its data plans. Could it be that the Ipad could be launching on Sprint, Verizon and T-Mobile? BTW this is an open forum people. Agree or Disagree lets not behave like a three year old on the playground…

  • Matt

    Sorry to dissapoint, but I just spoke with a T-mobile rep yesterday and he confirmed that it is the official “hard” launch day for the Slide. Nothing for any of us to get overly excited about. This explains why you have yet to see any real ads for the Slide, no TV spots, its not even on T-mobile’s official home page. All the promos will begin June 19th, and it will be big just like last year when they released the original mytouch 3g and they had that huge release party/carnival in San Francisco. I have to say, after holding the slide in my hand, it is a much nicer phone than the web pictures lead you to believe, very sturdy and the slider is very smooth. It looks and feels like the mytouch and g1 got it on in the back of a car somewhere and the slide popped out 9 months later.

    • J-Hop2o6

      the hard launch is on June 16th.. look at the mT-Slide timeline that was posted up last week.

      • ItsMichaelNotMike

        But a hard launch on the 16th could well have some kind of promotion a few days later.

    • Craig

      OMG if it is the slide… Total fail for T-Mobile. I went to my T-Mobile store on the launch day of the MyTouch 3G (which I love!) and there were so few people I thought I had the wrong day! There is no way in the world they need to open early for the slide. A failure of that magnitude could spell doom for our beloved magenta network.

  • MB

    100% guaranteed that you will see all smart phones free for new customers including the new slide. Mark this post and get in line early!!

    • soon2TMO

      if that is ever true! i will definitely fall in line before i clock in to work.. LOL, i’ll get the HD2 or the slide.. LOL

    • Doug

      oh, wow. as an existing customer, that would be so awesome…

  • t3hm@n

    I hope it’s the iPhone…

  • 2FR35H

    I believe I have just thought of the best theory out of you all!

    The RED Mytouch 3G Slide will be available but only as limited sale think about it. They are not letting people pre-order the red one because thats whats going be launched then on the 19th currently they will only allow you to pre-order it in black or white from tmobile. The red MT3GS will be the equivalent of the Fender edition mytouch.

    • pdxDavid

      I don’t think there would be all this secrecy, all hands on deck and opening early for a red phone.

    • joe in oklahoma

      I bought my MTSlide last Wednesday, and chose white, but red was in the store, so, I doubt this is it.

    • rob

      and you can buy it in the store

    • faddalee

      they have the red my touch 3G slide at the tmobile near me

    • TMoEmployee

      Not saying that you’re wrong but, if that’s the reason for all this hype. I will quit T-Mobile. Cause that’s just ass!

    • ItsMichaelNotMike

      That sounds intriguing and all, but when I called to order the Slide it was in inventory and that’s the one I ordered. (Unless the CSR was lying to me. But then I would simply ask where did you get YOUR info, that “they” are not letting people order any phone, much less red? And as some posts in here indicate others too have ordered the Slide, in red, black or white).

    • mr.mangenta

      FAILx2 the slide in red is already out and its the same price as The black and white no limited edition or free smartphone

  • Tmoloyal

    New prediction added on to my iPhone and Nexus predictions: June 19th will be the day Android 2.2 is released on all UPGRADABLE Android devices that tmobile has. I’d also guess that this maybe a Tmobile exclusive sort of deal, since Tmobile did give Android their chance first.

  • soon2TMO

    i strongly believe it wont be a phone launch.. this ” this will be big” is something that tmobile considers as BIG as it will benefit its customers in general..

    only the geeks and tech pundits are the ones who are leaps and bounds regarding high-end devices, but the mass majority is not.. so how could it be a device launch relevant to “this will be big” agenda?

    imagine tmobile announcing that a high-end phone will be launched, will the people be surprised and excited?
    but imagine tmobile announcing free phones or some sale.. people will be rushing in for that.. like xmas sale or something..LOL

    idk, we’ll see! hehe

    • MB

      Like I said earlier, it will be ALL phones free for new customers. Watch and learn guys. It is for fathers day promo and for getting people on family plans. All phones free mark this post!!

      • TMoEmployee

        Alright, let’s say that you’re right and the other guy is right about the phones must stay at the registers. Have you ever looked under a T-Mobile register desk? It’s very small. Not enough to keep every handset in the store readily available. Try again….

  • soon2TMO

    * gets excited by leaps and bounds..

    ughh

  • BEC

    My guess is it’s the launch date for marketing the MTS. Zero commercials thus far. I’ve been to two stores, neither of which had the MTS on display, nor any sort of in-store advertising. My best guess for releasing early without any marketing would be to get the phone out there to some. If there are major bugs, it’s not a wide-scale problem. Also, greater amount of time to manufacture more phones. Magenta wants to have plenty of these available on the “official” release date. Remember, the MTS is their big summer phone. It’s not summer yet. The push to get this phone into the hands of the consumer will begin 6-19. Really hope that it’s something bigger, though.

    • TMoEmployee

      Nope, it’s the 16th. Try again…

    • TMoEmployee

      Nope, it’s the 16th. BOOONG!!!! Neeeeext!!!

  • http://tmobile.com A-NON

    um, its not the hard launch of the My touch slide. the hard launch of the slide is on june 16th.

    I’ve worked for magenta for the past 4yrs and we have never opened early (aside from black friday) for any phone launch ever….even when the g1 came out, aka the 1st android phone.

    its definitely something big. but still have no idea what

  • Mike

    The MyTouch Slide is already out in the tmobile stores by my house, So no it’s not the MyTouch Slide

  • Chris

    Hey, you know that “trade-in-an-iPhone” promo? What if this was them launching the iPhone with USED iPhones that they got from the promotion, and they’ve hacked them apart to make them work for this purpose? And you thought those OTHER suggestions were insane..

  • the guy

    its probably the day they stock the nexus one.

    • Monarch

      ^ This. Nexus one going first-party retail would definitely drive some ‘open early’ levels of traffic.

      • WhatdoIknow

        Especially if it’s combined with a killer deal! Just one phone, by itself, is not enough to open early. Just a deal (Bogo or whatever), by itself, is not enough to open early. But combine multiple devices with a promotional deal and I think you might have a winner. It’s got to be something big enough to draw attention away from the Evo and iphone launches. I don’t think the Slide and some sort of deal is big enough. But the Nexus combined with the Slide and some sort of deal would be.
        The soft launch of the Slide and the delay of media advertising makes more sense that way. I wouldn’t be surprised if the commercials for the Slide also advertise the Nexus one (whether it’s re-labeled as something else or not).

  • §ü|»è®mªn §wªg

    Sounds to me like it will just be a special on phones, not a special phone :(

    Though I would love to see TMo up it’s selection, I don’t see it happening anytime soon. Then with the recent 4g vs +, it only makes sense to drop some phones.

  • faddalee

    the network upgrade with free phones

  • CO_yeti

    If Tmo really wants to drive some traffic they are going to have to buyout contracts for new customers and offer killer phone deals.

  • glt

    Think Father’s Day people. A phone sale of some sort. The Nexus One in stores is a possibility, but more than likely a major sale/discount/free phone offer. Other options are discounted plans, ie. data rates cheaper, as one person said. I don’t see a NEW phone coming (Galaxy, iPhone, Desire, etc). They need to drive new contract sales, not increase phone sales (upgrades). If phones are the reason they open early, FREE to new customers and discounted to existing. Two levels will probably be applied, those who have more than 22 months and those with less than 22 months.

  • http://wtfentertainment.com tmowhatnow

    Its confirmed that all 3 of my local stores will have radio and tv stations at each store… so something is big going down.

    • CO_yeti

      That is the way Tmo likes to market, they don’t have the money for a ton of TV ads so they try to use stunts, talk shows and news shows to reach people. Doesn’t mean it is anything worthy of actually having the news there.

      • Tmoloyal

        What?! lol They had Catherine Zeta Jones as their spokesperson for forever. Im pretty sure they definitely have a ton of money for advertising. Plus they got all of those celebs for the Mytouch release commercials.

    • Tmoloyal

      Yeaaa right

  • T-mobile rEP

    the soft launch for the slide was the 2nd, some stores still have them available to sell. the official launch is the 16th along with all the merchandising. in my 3 years working for t-mobile no one has been so tight-lipped about whats going to happen. no one knows. i just think it’s funny that details of the promotion haven’t emerged yet and tomorrows the WWDC. Yes it was on the mytouch slide sheet but that can all be a smoke screen or curve ball for whats really going to happen. remember apple is the one who makes the release date, not the carrier.

    • T-mobile rEP

      i don’t think free phones for everyone or a promotion on plans is going to be worth us opening 2 hours earlier than usual nationwide. we already know that most likely we are getting the SGS next month. Yeah the N1 is a helluva phone but i still don’t see it getting people here at 8am on a saturday morning. HTC sidekick twist or Iphone mos def!!

  • eric

    listen guys i think after thinking long and hard there is only one thing that could be going on and one thing only. just wait and watch tv for the promo they will do something like free upgrade no matter how long u have until ur free upgrade. killer promos for smart phones they make there money from the data and text plans so it makes sense to try and get as many smart phones in peoples hands that have to pay that 30 dollar a month plan fee for it its how cell company’s make there real money its not airtime look at boost and metro its the data plans for smart phones. im just saying

    • Tmoloyal

      I would probably crap myself if they did that. I think I’d rather have that than a new handset release

  • Ramon

    will this even effect existing customers?

  • Bigg

    If it’s the nexus…..BORING, already got it. I’m thinking about jumping ship to att…my tmobile service has been crappy lately. Phone calls not coming through, delay text message…selling alll my Tmobile phone. N900, Nexus 1, HD2, BB9700 any taker????

    • 2FR35H

      How much for N1?

  • Bigg

    JK….but seriously, I’ve had enough with tmobile crappy service lately and I’m in a pretty decent market where the signal suppose to be good.

  • Ramsey

    I have now changed my mind… I think they will be offering a trade in deal for anyone on any carrier. An offer to trade up, for one day to a My Touch slide for one day for a very discounted price. This would work on a Saturday with very little notice with a enough people buying them now… showing them off, then offering them for free with a two year contract.

  • TMO

    It’s going to be some kind of phone promotion.. most likely free phones for new/existing customers. We received a fax at my location with a template sheet of how the line quere is going to work. I won’t go into detail about everything it says, but I will say this.. the template says 1st choice, 2nd choice, 3rd choice. Also, everyone with over ride codes are required to work that day all day.

    • CO_Yeti

      Haha, yeah right! I have override permissions and I guarantee you I’m not pulling a 13 hour shift unless its the new iphone for free to new customers that activate an unlimited everything plan!!!

  • manny

    i was talkin to a couple of people @ t-mobile here in miami…. they told me that it might be either the nexus one which… i think would not make much of a difference or the new samsung galaxy s… i am still debating on this 1 … because ppl said in the past that samsung never updates their system…. so i am still a little skepticale about that …. i am really looking foward to see if they bring the htc desire… that would be awesome

  • Meatty

    I just read an article that said the iPhone4G will be announced for release on a carrier other than AT&T on June 18th, the day before T-Mobile’s “Huge” new thing… This may be a coincidence, but, imagine an iPhone with T-Mobile’s 3G speeds *quivers*. I am not a fan of Crapple in any way but it would definitely give TMO the edge they need… most popular phone for the masses and the fastest 3G speeds available…

    • WhatdoIknow

      Are you going to say where you read this article? If not, I would say you just made that up.

  • Rick

    I was told by a worker in store she expects the day Nexus One becomes available in the store……

  • Negtne

    I love t-mobile, but after the the evo, htc incredible, hearing of the new droid series and The htc scorpion, and the iPhone. tmobile has nothing to offer phone wise…it’s sad really is…..I bought my fiancé a my touch slide and it’s a cool phone but to be honest it cannot compete with any of these phones so to rely on this device as a flagship model is kind of an embarrassment. And if anyone says the hd2 is a flagship device is crazy! (ask any owner that isn’t a die hard windows mobile fanboy that owns one if they love there phone) I returned mine after a week and a half. Don’t get me wrong I love t-mobile but I know of five people in my group of friends that jumped to sprint for the evo, and three that went to verizon for the droid incredible. They keep it up, not gonna be good for tmo USA.

    • TMoEmployee

      I agree with you 100%

      T-Mo has no real flagship phone that can compete.
      I’ve had the MyTouch, Cliq, HTC HD2, Neuron, MyTouch Fender and now I’ve just ordered the Slide. Not to mention, I had the N900 for a few months (damn good tablet, okay phone). All in the past 6 months, literally! Trying to find the best fit. I refused to pay for the Nexus One with all the 3G problem talks and no good customer service for it.

      What ever it is, it has to be funky! The WWDC is in a few hours so, we’ll see about the biggest debate of them all.

      Other than that, T-Mobile needs to get it together. If not, when I move on from them as an employer, I may switch to Sprint for the Evo…

    • the guy

      i dumped my hd2 a week and a half after i got it as well… for a g1 lol.

      • analog spirit

        I had to take my HD2 back after only 1 day, due to the really frustrating issues I had with it, tho I probably just had a defective unit. T-Mo unfortunately had no other phones I wanted to upgrade to, and I don’t plan on switching carriers just for a different phone, so I just went back to my outdated (but still pretty reliable) BB 8320 (the old Curve). Sad, I know…

  • tchez27

    its been a while but im glad to see the forum is live and kicking.
    let me shed some light, the proof is in the name “project emerald”. tmo is simply going to have its employees show up early brush in hand to paint all magenta signs green to show their commitment to go green. either that or its a memorial service for the g1. seriously folks you know all this hype is for not, I love you tmo but youre in fourth for a reason.

  • A-non

    If u guys could see my quota for upgrades this month you’d be amazed. I’m in a slightly slower store and this month my upgrade quota is almost 3x higher than what it normally is. But my activations quota is only about 10more than usual. Whatever is going to happen is gonna drive more upgrades than activations…..

  • Frank

    IT BETTER BE TO MOTHER CHUGGIN SAMSUNG GALAXY S

  • the guy

    i’ll be soooooo mad if its the nexus one. i just bought a damn mytouch slide on payments.

    • remister

      14 day remorse return (30 if your in California)

  • soon2TMO

    i just saw on engadget about the Evo’s launch with a long line outside of a sprint store .. this made me think that people actually do fall in line for a phone! LOL haha
    anyway, i suddenly thought that this june 19 puzzle might be a phone launch too? possibly the nexus one launch? i dont know..

    we’ll see..

  • soon2TMO

    or the galaxy S? oh pleasee let it be the galaxy S!!

    LOL, if not then i’ll patiently wait till it gets released..

  • DJ Indigenous

    i think that June 19 is going to be the final day for BOGO! all tho i wish that it would be a date for maybe pree order for the Samson galaxy s…. i slightly doubt it. but i will not give up hope.

  • soon2TMO

    hmm, no it has to be related to mytouch slide with some kind of promotion, sale too maybe?

  • Nokia N900USER

    Yet another sign from AT&T. I got this from macrumors:
    “On the eve of the WWDC 2010 keynote and what is believed to be the announcement of the next generation iPhone, AT&T seems to have adjusted user eligibility requirements forward for many customers. This means that several readers who previously were ineligible to purchase a new subsidized iPhone now find that they are eligible”

    So it seems a lot of things are being done to keep AT&T customers in. Well, WWDC10 is 5.5 hrs away. Stay tuned……

  • remixfa

    no tmobile emps have the answer, they arent telling anyone anything. Anyone that says otherwise is more than likely lying. my guess, and the guess of some colleagues is that it will be a “all phones are free” day. Apparently theyve done it before, and it was huge, so they may do it again. Last quarter’s numbers werent exactly exiting, so it would be a good last minute push for activations for the quarter.

    yea, all 3 colors of the slide are availible in store already, so its not that. If it were a new phone launch, id hope it was the new HTC touchscreen android powered sidekick phone. But if it was that, we’d be seeing alot more spy shots. Its not an Iphone, so quit wishing.

    • Cybersedan

      Not that I’m wishing or actually care much, but you just contradicted yourself, if nobody really knows what’s in store for the 19th, then nobody knows what’s not, so how can you firmly say “its not an iPhone”.

    • TMOforawhile

      This might be a silly question, but I got this phone recently and paid the upgrade price. If there is a huge phone promotion where the MTS price is going to either drop or be free on that day, will tmobile price match? Seems unfair that I was excited to get this phone, and end up paying more because I got it 2 weeks early.

      I live in CA so i have a 30 day return period. If they don’t price match…I don’t even know if I could return the phone that day and just “upgrade” again to the MTS for the second time to take advantage of promotional pricing.

      All hypothetical, who knows what that day will really bring, but just curious…

  • Nokia N900USER

    Nexus 1

  • JAMM

    Ok if I am wishing:

    I want a free upgrade from my MT3G on the unlimited Even More Plus plan to a slide. After 5 years as a tmo customer something like that would guarantee another 5+ years.

    At least an upgrade for $99.

  • Nokia N900USER

    New iphone has UMTS…….

  • Barry

    I like the idea of the N1 or Iphone(not that I woiuld ever buy one) but I think we’re all over looking what else comes out this week…the garminfone maybe the 19th has something to do with that and father’s day. I mean dad could always use a new phone with a new snappy gps system maybe the promotion has something to do with that…I’m just playing devil’s advocate here but I’m hoping it’s some kinda new device.

  • Green Robot

    Anybody watching Jobs?
    As Nokia N900USERS pointed out, new iPhone has quad band HSDPA/HSUPA.
    Wonder which ones…?
    Wait for it…, wait for it…..

    • Nokia N900USER

      Looks like its not happening for this year. Tmobile better be selling me a nexus for $99 on the 19th

      • Nokia N900USER

        So iPhone is not coming out in stores till June 24th. This makes sense now that T-mobile’s June 19th will be a big Let down. But Im still up for nexus one if they sell it to me for $99 to $200

    • artiepants

      I’m waiting, i’m waiting….

      • Green Robot

        A bit longer, a bit longer…
        Wait for it…, wait for it….

    • Green Robot

      ….and it’s the end of that rumor. No iPhone for T-Mobile. I can hear an odd mishmash of a collective sigh of relief with a wailing cry many….
      Next!

  • Barry

    I hope it’s either a N1 or Iphone (not that I would ever buy one but it’ll be good for the network) But has everyone forgotten about the phone that’s coming out this week…The beloved anticipated garminfone ??? I mean dad could always use a gps right ? and this even makes phone calls :O I hope I’m wrong but that may play a part in this new promo. But I like everyone else is hoping it’s a fresh device not even the N1. guess we’ll find out soon enough. *waits in anticipation for the garmin…err HTC Sidekick Twist ;-)*

  • ItsMichaelNotMike

    So Steve Jobs just introduced the new iPhone (he is playing catch up with what is out there, IMHO)

    Anyway, he said the phone will be available on June 24.

    So does this June 19 date affect that?

    I assume people know that ALL carriers do some kind of promotion in response to what other carriers are doing. (None have a defeatist attitude like some people in here. Thinking “Oh our phones are sheet, so might as well not do anything to counter Apple’s release.”)

    Now if I were T-Mobile and wanting respond to Apple and steal some of its thunder I know I would have to come out with some super big, newsworthy promo.

    So will T-Mobile be coming out with something really big? Maybe so.

    Here is Jobs keynote on the iPhone if you want to read up on it:

    http://www.rantuniverse.com/AppleJobs2010.pdf

  • kast

    I hope it’s the HTC “Better Than Batman, Superman, Spiderman, iPhone4 and the Incredible Hulk Put Together”. LOL.

    In all seriousness, the new iPhone looks nice, but I’ll still take anything remotely close to Evo-like specs. Don’t let me down, Tmo!

  • Wilma Flintstone

    At least now we know that the June 19th BIG thing ISN’T the iPhone. Jobs just declared the release as June 24th and they’re sticking with At&t. WOOHOOO!!!!!! I’m soooo excited that that crap isn’t coming to Tmo. XD

    Now that it’s out of the question, it leaves room for better devices such as Project Emerald, Galaxy S, Dell Streak, HTC Scorpion (I only heard rumor that this was coming to Tmo, I saw an article that it was going to Verizon though) & HTC Incredible.

    Unfortunately though, I’m starting to believe that it’s just some random MyTouch Slide related stuff but why would it open the stores early for a phone that’s already out? That’s what baffles me about this news and that’s why I don’t think it’s MyTouch Slide related. *Keeps Fingers crossed for Project Emerald Device on June 19th*

    • ItsMichaelNotMike

      Spot on comments Wilma.

      And it could and most likely be the Slide, but in line with what I said earlier, it might be the Slide with all the other phones that are 7.2 capable.

      Since I now accept that it will be an across the board “Free” phones promotion, I am now just hoping that current customers can wet their beaks too.

      I’m an Even More Plus account, so I may be SOL no matter what T-Mobile is coming out with. That will be a drag since that limits me to just wondering what handsets will be coming to T-Mobile, no matter the price since I have to pay retail.

      • remister

        I’m on the Even More Plus plan also. I just got a myTouch slide, maybe they give like a 100$-150$ rebate on phones that aren’t subsidized for us!

  • ItsMichaelNotMike

    The more I think about it, the more I like the posts in here that have talked about some kind of free or low-priced phone promo. That makes the pic I posted have more sense, it could be a “Pick any two of our 7.2 HSPA phones for free.”

    http://www.rantuniverse.com/HSPA7.2phones.jpg

    Assuming June 19 is in response to Apple new iPhone debut, what else could attract media attention?

    It would not be a new handset, by itself, because none of the speculated handsets would garner media attention.

    It won’t be the SGS since no way Samsung would introduce its flagship phone at the same time period when Apple this, Apple that is in the news.

    It’s not going to be the iPhone coming to T-Mobile (Jobs just mentioned AT&T’s generous new data plan pricing).

    It’s not going to be the N1. That phone has been on the market six months. News media does not cover phone stories on a device that everyone knows about. They cover news. And they especially won’t be covering the fine point distinction that the Nexus One (that already says “T-Mobile” on it) will now be carried in T-Mobile stores. That’s not even worthy of a yawn.

    I don’t think it could be the Slide by itself because that’s a mid-level phone and to respond to Apple (especially Apple’s “mid-level” competitive pricing for iPhones a $99, $199, and $299 for the 32GB model)T-Mobile would have to come up with something better than the fact that the Slide is $20 less than the new 16GB iPhone available for orders on June 24).

    So what does that leave? Radical, dramatic pricing, some kind of “all phones for free” promo, what someone said in here many posts ago.

    I just don’t see how with the Evo and new iPhone coming up that T-Mobile would not have something big coming up.
