Re: tmobile said by patcat88:Tmobile already uses proprietary spectrum that few devices support (AWS/1700). Too be technically correct, that statement SHOULD note that this is just the UMTS 3G part of T-Mobiles US spectrum. T-Mobile USA is also the LARGEST occupant of the 1900 MHz band, used mostly for 2G+ services, and uses pretty much the same dual-band GSM RF architecture handsets as ATT Mobility. A typical T-MO handset can roam on ATT Mobility and vs-vs
This is only a guess, but if they have enough contiguous spectrum at 1900 in their markets, they could certainly run 3G services (unless prohibited - not 100% up-to-date on the do's and don'ts of some of the FCC part 24 spectrum  )

WiMAX says WiMAX works from 2 GHZ to 66 GHZ. Will there ever be a product that will do that? No.
UMTS and GSM also have many many bands in their standards that will never find a Nokia, Samsung, or LG phone for.

Yet Nokia, Samsung, and LG all have phones for the AWS band. Are you intentionally trying to torpedo your own argument?

Every UMTS phone without 1700 is another phone that will never go on Tmobile USA. |

Much like the coverage argument, it seems like that can go both ways. When it comes down to it, 850/1700/1900 are ALL secondary bands.
God you're an absolutely atrocious troll.
