Re: LOL WUT

I tried that with my razr and I got dial up speed. Then I found out it was not EDGE. So I went and got a blackberry and signed up for the phone as modem for $20 a month, And I got worst speeds then the razr and I was on the EDGE network. Long story short, I returned the blackberry and waiting for my refund to come in the mail.

tmobile is doing pretty well, in all honesty.
It's noticably faster than dialup and easy to host the connection with software such as joikuspot so you could have a mobile laptop with internet access.

I don't know what you're talking, I'd say the speed is just about 4x dialup right now.

I happened to have tried T-Mobile's wireless internet... one problem I did find... connecting at 19.9 baud wasn't my idea of high speed.

1.T-mobile is NOT everywhere
They're where 95% of the population's at. Cities.
2. They are JUST rolling out 3G. How many cities? 2 right now?
Fair nuff. That's going to change in a couple weeks when the new HTC/Google Android phone gets released...
3.I always thought VZW had the worst selection of phones. I am definitely wrong. T-Mobile has a terrible selection.
GSM much? eBay and Amazon allow you to purchase better phones than any of the cell phone companies has because you can buy practically any GSM phone on the planet and just switch out the SIM Card. Hong Kong and Europe ftw!
