Are you worried that T-mo will switch you to the $25+ plan if they find out you're using a "smart phone"?

Upgrades of this type are done on a site by site basis a few market/cities at a time. The won't a big throw the switch moment.

Did you get an update the other day for the APN ifno? I'm up near Baltimore, and T-Mo pushed out an update, changing the "Connection name" from "T-Mobile Internet", to "WAP Settings", along with configuring a "proxy address". I'm still connecting to epc.tmobile.com, but notice that speedtest.net has my "position" in Maryland now, (vs. New Jersey, or Kansas, on the other APN, Internet2.). I was manually changing APNs for testing, but update moved me from Internet2, back to epc.

I'm still only getting ~940Kb down at best, and still getting solid full bars of 3.5G.

or u can stick to wifi...sigh..

Yeah, but WiFi is not going to help streaming Sling/HAVA box when I'm on the road.
