I can't give you a time frame but I know it will be done someday, without a doubt.

I remember when I was on Verizon years ago and EV-DO was available in some areas and only 1x in others. Of course, this was before 3G even. Now it's all over.

Same with GPRS and EDGE. I RARELY come across GPRS now on T-Mobile.

Just give it time...

Oh I don't know. Seems to me that over 100 cities ain't too bad ...

Everything comes in time. I'm sure if it was an inexpensive process they would have it done nationwaide. Maybe that's why they came out with the new unlimited plans so they can raise capital and put it back into infrastructure.

HSPA+ is scheduled to roll out by mid 2010. Some places already have it. Those of us not blessed w/3G may very well get HSPA+ instead.

Congratulations. I read in the LA Times that even Joe Torre was here in LA pulling for the Yankees to beat the Phillies.

Don't get too comfortable though. The Dodgers are coming back strong next year. Looking for a Torre v. Steinbrenner series in 2010. LOL.

Congrats again.

Thank you. I really was hoping for a Yankees ~ Dodgers series.

Funny how things turn around. Early in the year it looked like the Yankees wouldn't even make the playoffs again and the Dodgers would go all the way.

Boy ain't that the truth. That's what makes baseball such a great sport.

T-Mobile is not going the LTE route. They are building on their existing backbone 3G & expanding it to HSPA+ which some markets already have where other carriers don't even have 4G yet. & don't count out 21Mbps next year.

Ya gotta had it to your Phillies KBear. They played a great season and two World Series competitions in a row ain't nothing to be ashamed about.

You had a great year. Congrats to your Phillies ... but the Dodgers are gonna get 'em next year. LOL.
