 tkdslr join:2004-04-24 Pompano Beach, FL | T-mobile Get's Roaming, but what does AT&T get... Roaming agreements are sometimes a two way street..
Will AT&T customers get access to portions of T-mobile's HSPA+ network? Don't be too surprised... |

| I for one think the roaming agreements could really strenghten t-mobile not ever cares about crazy fast 4G speeds, the average t-mobile customer is looking for value, if they live in a city that is well served by t-mobile and can still get service in the sticks thanks to roaming agreements, you've just killed the #1 problem that most people have with t-mobile, which isn't their lack of true 4G, but lack of coverage in places.
I'm not saying t-mobile is going to do wonderful now, but they may surprise us and I think their is a lot of people spouting doom and gloom for t-mobile because they had government regulation even when it's good for the consumer *cough* Republicans *cough* |

As for AT&T getting access to T-Mobile's HSPA+ network, that will only work for phones that can use AWS, and none of AT&T's current handsets can do that. |
