Did another online conversation today and she said the online reps got notice today that it will be released before the end of the month is up but no exact date.
i called today for the second time and was told that it wasnt getting released till early september... the first time i called they gave me a date of 8/29...

No....
I am going to give them a call back after their "training" and see what's going on.
I think they are all BSing. They all give the same answer every time.
I agree. What does that mean? What ATT deal are you talking about?
You do realize that AT&T is trying to buy T-Mobile? That deal.
I was just saying that T-Mobile is possibly delaying it because if At&t ends up buying T-Mobile, there will be a bunch of angry customers whose phones may not work on At&t's 3G.
Im probably going to just buy a 9860 or 9900 outright and use it on TMO. I first need to confirm that UMA works.. Someone please let me know if you have any info on this.
Man, you all need to chill out. It's been confirmed by many sources that T-Mobile is releasing the 9900 on August 31. The fact that they haven't officially announced it yet means nothing; heck, Verizon is releasing it tomorrow and we haven't heard a peep out of them (officially). Just wait a couple more weeks.
I can see an announcement coming from them on the 18th, after they brief the reps and begin training on the 17th (supposedly).

Totally not worth it, bro. You'll be stuck with 2G speeds and no UMA (without some hardcore tweaking). Are you eligible for an upgrade?
I haven't heard pricing for tmobile yet, however I did hear that at&t has taken over new device releases already for the merger and they are releasing it now in November 2011 so it doesn't compete with the torch release!
J/k! I hope they release it in August with a $200 upgrade fee!
I am sorry but I have to say that rumor about AT&T and taken over new handsets is baseless as the merger has not been approved by the U.S. Federal Government... until AT&T and T-Mobile get the official green light they will continue to operate as two separate companies. Anything short of that and the Federal Govt will be all over them.

I also need to know about UMA and wi-fi hotspot on T-Mobile or it will be back to Android for me. I can't do without UMA and wi-fi hotspot would be great to have (the camera problem is not that important to me).
I wish I knew how you did it. I tried everything I could with the customer service rep I talked to and all she kept saying was she was seeing TBA for all the dates in the system.

I am currently using a torch 9800 this way and it works fine for me. I have UMA in US and when i travel i slip an Orange chip and am good to go.
That's different, you probably wanted the slider (I did too but had no interest in spending $500-600 for one) and not everyone has the option of switching networks when they travel. All he has to do is wait 2 weeks! ha
