No 3G in my area edge only will they ever upgrade my area

[Dsm85]

I have no 3G in the city I live in and it has a university in it you would think tmobile would upgrade my city to 3G but edge only and just west of me is 3G I wish tmobile would focus on there coverage instead of the speed of there network cause there 3G coverage is really lacking!

What area are you in? If you call tmobile and complain, they will give you like a service number so that you can continue to track it.
I don't have 3g in my area, however majority of the time I seem to always fins a wifi. But I wouldn't be so enthusiastic about wanting 3g. It works extremely well in major cities, however I have been to some smaller cities that have 3g and call was dropped seemed like every 500 feet.

I agree, it is lacking. I only have EDGE here too.

My only advice is to be patient. At one time, there was only GPRS! Now 97% of all places have EDGE, even out in the country. It may take a lot of time but I'm sure 3G will be more widespread too...and by then we'll be worrying about 4G or HSPA+ or something.

Stop being so disgruntled because they can't get 3G everywhere in 3 weeks time. They're speeding up the existing network because it's sorely needed.

I don't know...my EDGE is pretty fast for EDGE. Then again, maybe it's because I'm not in a heavily populated area? No idea.

I hope 3G gets everywhere in a few years. I have a feeling it will.

It takes time to roll out a network like this. Monday came the first roll out of 3G in the southeastern most part of the Poconos. We're talking less than 70 southwest of New York City and they are finally getting some 3G love. It's not the best coverage, but I'm sure it's still being worked on.

Like everyone else has said, patience. Your town is twice as small as mine and I have great 3G coverage. I didn't know we had 3G until I got my 9700. I don't get 3G everywhere I go but for what I use it for, EDGE is just fine. At times while driving through the I85/I95 corridor, I hit GPRS and I'm like "WTF". LOL Eventually, it will come to your area but you have to be patient.
