Good for T-Mobile (and its customers)

They should be able to increase coverage and offer data services so they will bring better competition to Cingular, Verizon and Sprint-Nextel. T-Mobile was particularly lacking in data.

Not very likely. The new 1700/2100MHz bands will not offer any improvement in propagation versus the 1900MHz they are using now. Had it been for spectrum in the 700MHz or 850MHz bands then it would have made a difference. What this will do is give them more bandwidth to roll out more advanced 3G services. However, any holes in their coverage now will still be there with these new frequencies unless they build out more cell sites.
