Hey mike(philly) and likeabite(lilboyspp’s) yall are f*ckin retarded. This is what the 3G coverage will be by Jan 09. Not what it is currently. Also, ya dumb b*tches, your lil nokia 2610’s aren’t 3G anyway. That would be part of the reason u don’t have signal.Learn to f*ckin read, taintlickahs.

@Mikey and rudy:

When you hit the link, scroll to the bottom of the page and click the “Display” box under the Data Coverage section. Then you’ll see what kind of 3G/EDGE data your area has.

Am I the only person who doesn’t get the 3G coverage showing up when they hit the “Read” link? I get the same coverage map as last week (just showing signal strength).

This is soooooooooo long overdue that I’m surprised anyone cares anymore.
Now, when I just went to the “Upgrade Your Phone” part of My T-Mobile, there are no 3G handsets in the lineup to choose from. Ha!

This is BS. T-Mobile’s 2G coverage map is not to be believed. I get no coverage in places it says I should get at least two bars. These clowns have no credibility in my mind.

Anyone know if Nokia is going to add t-mo 3G support on their N-series handsets?

Also, are the old data plans compatible? ie, if I move my SIM over to a new phone can I keep my old $20/mo unlimited tethering-ok data plan?

Their phone filter now even includes “3G”, even including their first 3G handset, the Samsung t639!

Please note that the areas marked as 3G on the current map will be live on or before mid October. That is why the Los Angeles market shows its covered even though it hasn’t actually been officially lit up. More will be made clear within the coming days.

Also, T-Mobile will expand the current 3G covered areas even more throughout the remainder of the year making each market even more ubiquitous.

Yeah, same. It says theres 3G in Chicago.

Yeah i live in the LA area and it says I would have 3G. Which is odd.

It seems to display 3G coverage in many areas that don’t have 3G and some that have not even been said to receive 3G
