Speaking at an investor relations meeting, T-Mobile stated that they were unlikely to carry the iPhone anytime in the near future. Perhaps the biggest issue is the use of the 1700Mhz 3G band acting as a major barrier to selling the iPhone. T-Mobile is, of course, open to selling the iPhone, however the T-Mobile CEO explained that the chipset is the … [read full article]
Now that AT&T’s exclusivity on the iPhone has finally ended with Verizon Wireless officially announcing the iPhone yesterday, it seems T-Mobile wants in on the iPhone as well. As you may recall, T-Mobile USA’s new CEO and President already has a relationship with Apple. Before becoming CEO of T-Mobile USA, Philipp Humm previously was CEO of T-Mobile Deutschland, where he introduced the iPhone to Germany in 2007. According to The Seattle Times, … [read full article]
Hoping to not get lost in today’s Nexus S news cycle is a report by analyst Shaw Wu of Kaufman Bros who believes that Verizon will pay to keep the iPhone away from Sprint and T-Mobile. I believe it’s safe to say that analyst opinions like this are often steeped … [read full article]
So look, I’m sure the above reasoning is perfectly fine and true and all in all, it’s not a bad reason to carry iPhone accessories.

Much to the ire of Sprint and now AT&T, this has begun and will likely continue to be the subject of a “little” spat between the carriers. The thing is, I’m almost 100% positive that was … [read full article]
David’s Update: I’ve amended the text below since at least a few took some of the wording out of context. This cable absolutely does NOT prove T-Mobile is getting the iPhone, especially tomorrow. You shouldn’t return a recently purchased device waiting for this and you shouldn’t start camping outside your local T-Mobile. The arrival of this cable is peculiar and the likely solution is that T-Mobile produced a … [read full article]
To say that iPhone, Blackberry and Android users are an opinionated bunch would be the single most truthful statement I’ve ever made on this site. C-Section Comics agrees and has put together this handy little cartoon to help sort out the whole smartphone wars escapade. I could summarize it for you but it’s really just better if you look for yourself! [read full article]
Are you sick of this yet? It seems like with every new week comes a new iPhone on T-Mobile rumor. Is today’s rumor different? Sure, I mean, I guess so. The difference today is that Canada’s Quebecor launched a mobile service through Vidéotron. This mobile service happens to use AWS, just like our lovely Magenta. During a Q&A session, however, one of their executive vice presidents … [read full article]
Another day, another rumor. Yesterday we heard about merging with Sprint, but what about surpassing them? Well, it is very possible that that could happen if this particular rumor came true. It’s not the first time we have been on this roller coaster, but yet another analyst says the iPhone is coming to T-Mobile. Tee [read full article]
