Could T-Mobile be poised to announce 3G on December 6th?
This could be the move that T-Mobile USA customers have been waiting for. According to anecdotal reports, the answer is yes. We’re calling "rumor!" on this one until further confirmation, but that won’t stop us from getting just a wee bit excited over the prospect. Apparently a company spokesperson, citing "internal documents," informed a customer that T-Mobile will be making an announcement about certain 3G services "on or before December 6th, 2007." Sounds a bit fishy to us, but we suppose time will tell. Lord knows a little high-speed data love could go a long way for the company’s customers who are still stuck on that ancient EDGE network. But again, we seriously doubt this.

TYPO-
“Identical”, not identile.
At least (according to Wikipedia) T-Mo’s 3G network will give us a max of 7.2 Mbps downstream HSDPA when it finally launches.

that would be nice but the phone company in a whole will still suck lol thats why i still do not have an employee plan
ll might as well but an htc advantage x7501
so if tmob announces 3G what do u all think the probablity of a 3g, gps, wifi “curve-like” blackberry would be and what would be the timeframe?
If this is true, how long would it take for it to become nationwide. It seems even stories like this take years to implement everywhere. New York might get it first, then LA, then Miami, then 5 years later Chicago, then 10 years later Houston.
I wont care about this until it happens.
What did he say?
So BG… where’s the update on this one? Or was this all worked by the rumor mill? Got any info on this?
all smoke no fire, I just dont see 3g for T-mobile anytime soon
According to our resource at work, T-Mobile will be launching UMTS in Q3 of 2008. Not sure if it’s going to happen or not, I’ve seen a couple of our other plans not happen. I’m hoping the Android platform will be up and running good by the time this all happens though.
I’m the proud owner of a Blackberry 8320 Curve,yep that’s right Blackberry,so…I don’t really care or need 3g or an I-phone or anything else,and now everybody is talking about the new 9xxx series,and as soon as RIM get’ em out on the streets I’m gonna get mine,so wake up,if you like me like the just best, switch to the best,get a blackberry and forget about 3g,and become a CURVE-ADICT!!!
Oops I forgot,doesn’t matter if its t-mo sprint rogers vodafone verizon,RIM is just that,’RIM’ and you never go disappointed!!!
Other than the 3 major outages that happened in 07 and 08 lol
